Maureen Mcgovern – Over The Rainbow lyrics
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 heard of
Once in a lullabye

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, why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow,
Why, oh, why can't I?
