When all the world is a hopeless jumble And the raindrops tumble all around Heaven opens a magic lane
When all the clouds darken up the skyway There's a rainbow highway to be found Leading from your windowpane
To a place behind the sun Just a step beyond the rain
Somewhere, over the rainbow Way up high There's a land that I dreamed of Once in a lullabye
Somewhere, over the rainbow Skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true
Some day I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are Far behind me Where laughter falls like lemon drops away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me
Somewhere, over the rainbow Skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true
If happy little bluebirds fly Beyond the rainbow Why, oh, why can't I?
