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 window pane 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 heard of once in a lullaby Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true
Someday day I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly Birds fly over the rainbow, why, then oh, why can't I?
Someday I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly Birds fly over the rainbow why, then oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow Why, oh why can't I?
Songwriters Harburg, E Y / Arlen, Harold
