Some place where there isn't any trouble. I wonder if there is such a place, Toto? There must be.
Not a place you can get to by a boat or a train. It's far, far away-behind the moon - beyond the rain -
When all the world is a hopeless jumble,
and the raindrops tumble all around,
Heaven opens a magical lane.
When all the clouds darken up the skyway,
There's a rainbow highway to be found.
Leading from your window pane,
To a place behind the sun,
Just a step beyond the rain.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high.
There's a land that I 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,
Away above the chimney tops,
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds 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...?
