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.
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
In the land that I heard of
Once, once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare you 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
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
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
If happy little bluebirds fly
Above the rainbow
When all the world is a hopeless jumble
And the raindrops tumble all around
Heaven opens a magic lane
When all the clouds darken up the skyway
There's a rainbow highway to be found
Leading from your windowpane
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 dreamed of
Once in a lullabye
Somewhere, over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
Some day I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are
behind me
Where laughter falls like lemon drops away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere, over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
There is a land that I heard of once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue
And those 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 a way 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
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
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 when 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 blue birds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little blue birds fly across the rainbow
Why oh why can't I?
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
One day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where your troubles melt like lemon drops
Way above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds, they fly
If birds can fly over, over the rainbow, why, then why can't I?
One day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where your troubles melt like lemon drops
Way above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds, they fly
If birds can fly over the rainbow, why, then why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why, oh, why can't I?

Somewhere Over The Rainbow
[instrumental]
[The meaning is close to 'The Game': help yourself.]
When you're in trouble
And when you feel pain
You hear it over
And over again
That demon inside you
He tries to persuade
It's such a tragedy
When it's too late
Over the rainbow
Far beyond the clouds
There's always something
But you can't reach out
It's sometimes hard for you
To overcome
You feel so much better
After it's done
Don't be so lazy
And don't be a fool
You are so stubborn,
As stubborn as a mule
Over the rainbow
Far beyond the clouds
There's always something
But you can't reach out
Follow the fire,
Hold on to your dreams
And with desire
You will find the means
Over the rainbow
Far beyond the clouds
There's always something
But you can't reach out
Follow the fire,
Hold on to your dreams
And with desire
When all the world is a hopeless jumble
And the raindrops tumble all around
Heaven opens a magic lane
When all the clouds darken up the skyway
There’s a rainbow highway to be found
Leading from your windowpane
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 dreamed of
Once in a lullabye
Somewhere, over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
Some day I’ll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are
Behind me
Where laughter falls like lemon drops away above the chimney tops
That’s where you’ll find me
Somewhere, over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh, why can’t i?
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high

Once in a lullaby.

And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.

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?
Why then - oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow,
Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high,
there´s a land that I have heard of once in a lulaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
and the dreams that you dare to dream really do come
true.
Someday I wish upon a star

Birds fly over the rainbow
Why, oh, why can't I
If happy little bluebirds fly
Above the rainbow
Sounds of revolution, calling everywhere
It' s time, to leave the past behind
Roaming through the shadows
Crossing seven seas
Deep inside, the inner flame is alive
Running for an odysee, far away
Hiding from our shame
To the gate of no return
Running faster, running high
A million miles away
We believe in destiny
Never stop for anything, never walk alone
Sleepwalking on endless seas,
misery and thorns
Star rise and lead me home
Powerful kingdom of happiness
Challenging the fortune, a fascination rises
Deep inside, with clarity in mind
Creeping through the emptiness
Dangerous - try to hold us back
And break the stairway down
Never stop for anything, never walk alone
In our dreams and fantasies - and my dreams are
fading
Bound to be reborn - light in the darkness
Star rise and lead me home
Powerful kingdom of happiness
Over the rainbow we' re touching the sky
Ride into distance we' ll find our way
Over the rainbow we fly to survive
Glide on illusions of better days
Demon shadows, master of sorrow
Try to catch our soul
Salvation is on the way
Never stop for anything, never walk alone
Keep our faith in prophecy -
my dreams are fading
The power of the crown - hold the crown
Star rise and lead me home

Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the dark
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'll know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

Birds fly over the rainbow why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little blue birds fly across the rainbow
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I've heard of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
The bluebirds fly so high
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then oh why can't I
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
The Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then oh why can't I
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, somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?
Somewhere, 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
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,
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?
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
Someday I'll wish upon an 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
When all the world is a hopeless jumble
And the raindrops tumble to the ground
Heaven opens a magic 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 step beyond the rain
Somewhre 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 whre 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?

Recently I’ve been doing some...research for an album that I’m planning to do.And I came across what is one of the finest songs I think ever written. But I thought I couldn’t sing it, because it’s identified with one of the greatest singers who ever lived. But, the lyrics felt so right, so relevant tonight that...what the hell, I decided to sing it. But I would like to dedicate it to this wonderful woman who first sang it - this woman who I had the privilege of working with and who touched me so deeply. Who knows she may even be listening...
When all the world is a hopeless jumble,
And the raindrops tumble all around,
Heaven opens a magic 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,
Way 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 all those little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow...
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Once in a lullaby
Oh somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Dreams really do come true
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 chimney 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?
Oh 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 chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Oh somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dare to
Why, oh why can't I, I?
Ooo ooo ooo
