Over The Rainbow Lyrics - Fontessa - The Modern Jazz Quartet

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high 

There's a land that I've heard of once in a lullaby. 

Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue 

And the dreams that you dare to dream, 

Really do come true. 

Someday 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. 

Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly 

Birds fly over the rainbow 

Why then, oh why can't I? 

If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow 

Why, oh why can't I? 

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high 

There's a land that I've heard of once in a lullaby. 

Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue 

And the dreams that you dare to dream, 

Really do come true. 

Someday 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. 

Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly 

Birds fly over the rainbow 

Why then, oh why can't I? 

If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow 

Why, oh why can't I?
