Artist/Band: Sam Harris
Lyrics for Song: Over The Rainbow
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Sam Harris



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?


About Over The Rainbow

Sam Harris's "Over The Rainbow" stands as a defining example of his work within the English New Wave and synth-pop landscape of the late 1980s. While the song shares its title with the iconic standard, Harris's version reimagines the melody through a distinctive production style characterized by driving rhythms and atmospheric synthesizers. This recording exemplifies the genre's tendency to blend nostalgic pop structures with modern electronic textures, creating a sound that was both commercially viable and critically noted for its unique sonic identity. The track remains a significant song in Harris's discography, showcasing his ability to reinterpret classic material through a contemporary lens. Its enduring presence in his catalogue highlights his role as a key figure in the genre's evolution, influencing subsequent artists who sought to merge organic songwriting with electronic instrumentation. The recording captures a specific moment in music history where the boundaries between traditional pop and emerging electronic styles were being actively explored and expanded.
