To a place behind the sun
And wake up where the clouds
Just a step beyond the rain
Heaven opens a magic lane
Birds fly over the rainbow, why then, oh, why can't I?
And the dreams that you dare to dream, really do come true
Are far behind me
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Way above the chimney tops
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
That's where you'll find me
When all the clouds darken up the skyway
Leading from your window pane
If all those little bluebirds fly
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
There's a rainbow highway to be found
