Somewhere Over the Rainbow

When all the world is a hopeless jumble
And the raindrops tumble all around
Heaven opens a magic lane
When all the cloud darken up the skywayThere's a rainbow highway to be found
Leading from your windowpane
To a place behind the sun
Just a step beyond the rainSomewhere over rainbow way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby
And somewhere over rainbow blue birds fly
Oh, if birds can fly over rainbow
Why, then why can't I?Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
And troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops that's where you'll find meSomewhere over rainbow bluebirds fly
If birds can fly over the rainbow
Why, then why can't I?Someday I'll wake and rub my eyes
And in that land beyond the skies you'll find me
I'll be a laughing daffodil
And leave the silly cares that fill my mind behind meSomewhere over rainbow bluebirds fly
If birds can fly over the rainbow
Why, then why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why, oh, why can't I?
