Somewhere over the rainbow
way up high
And the dreams that you dream of
once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow
bluebirds fly.
And the dreams that you dream of
dreams really do come true.
Someday I’ll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops,
that’s where you’ll find me.
Oh somewhere over the rainbow
bluebirds fly.
And the dreams that you dare to
oh why, oh why can’t I?
Well I see trees of green and
red roses too
I’ll watch them bloom
for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Well I see skies of blue and I see
clouds of white
And the brightness of day
highlight the dark
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow
so pretty in the sky.
Are also on the faces
of people passing by.
See friends shaking hands sayin’,
“How do you do?”
They’re really sayin’,
“I, I love you.”
I hear babies cry and I
watch them grow.
They’ll learn much more
than we all know.
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Someday I’ll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops,
that’s where you’ll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow
way up high
And the dreams that you dare to
oh why, oh why can’t I?
