Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby
Oh
[Verse 2]
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that dare to dream
Really do come true
Ooh
[Verse 3]
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
[Verse 4]
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
They fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
Well I see skies of blue
And I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the darkness of night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
[Verse 7]
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people passin' by
I see friends shakin' hands, singin'
"How do you do?"
They're really singin',
"I, I love you"
[Verse 8]
And I hear babies cry
And I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than, than we'll know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
[Verse 9]
Oh
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
[Verse 10]
Whoa, somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
