Lyrics
Some
where
o ver the rain bow, way
up
high,
there’s
a
land that I heard of once in a lul la by.
Some
where
o ver the rain bow, skies
are
blue,
and
the
dreams that you dare to dream real ly do come true.
Some day I’ll wish up on a star and wake up where the clouds are far be hind
me.
Where trou bles melt like lem on drops, a way, a bove the chim ney tops, that’s where
you’ll
find
me.
Some
where
o ver the rain bow blue
birds
fly.
Birds
fly
o ver the rain bow, why then, oh, why can’t I?
If hap py lit tle blue birds fly be yond the rain bow, why, oh, why can’t I?
