Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dream of
Dreams really do come true, oh

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
Way up high
And the dreams that you dream of
Once in a lullaby

Oh, 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 top that's where
You'll find me

Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dream that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can't I?
I
I

Well I see trees of green and red roses too
I 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
I like the dark
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

You'll find me, oh
Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly
And the dream that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can't I?

You'll find me, oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ohh
Ooh-ooh
