Artist/Band: Jimmy Roselli
Lyrics for Song: Over The Rainbow
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Jimmy Roselli



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?
