SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW

                                                          
                                                        Somewhere over the rainbow, 

way up high, 

in a dream that you dream of, 

once in a lullaby, 

oh somewhere over the rainbow, 

bluebirds fly, 

and the dreams that you dream of 

dreams really do come true, 

Someday I'll wish upon a star, 

wake up where the clouds are far behind me, 

where troubles melt like lemon drops, 

high above the chiminey tops, 

that's where you'll find me, 

Oh somewhere over the rainbow, 

bluebirds fly, 

and the dreams that you dare to, 

oh why, oh why, can't I 

Well I see trees of green and, 

red roses too, I watch them bloom, 

for me and you, 

and I think to myself, 

waht a wonderful world 

well I see skies of blue and, 

clouds of white, 

the brightness of day, 

I like the night, 

and I think to myself, 

what a wonderful world 

The colors of the rainbow, 

so pretty in the sky, 

are also on the faces, 

of people passing by, 

I see friends shaking hands, 

saying how do you do, 

they're really saying, 

I, I love you 

I hear babies cry, 

and I watch them grow, 

they'll learn much more, 

than we all know, 

and I think to myself, 

what a wonderful world 

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 chiminey tops, 

that's where you'll find me, 

Oh somewhere over the rainbow, 

way up high, 

and the dreams that you dream do, 

why, oh why can't I

"Over the Rainbow" (often referred to as "Somewhere Over the Rainbow") is a classic Academy Award-winning ballad, with music by Harold Arlen and lyrics by E.Y. Harburg. The version of Israel Kamakawiwoʻole's album Facing Future, released in 1993, included a ukulele medley of "Over the Rainbow" and "What a Wonderful World".

A song for me symbolizes the hopes and dreams of the people who I have and I had had, this song has made me cry enough for its lyrics and melody.
