Somewhere Over The Rainbow lyrics by Cliff Richard

Somewhere Over The Rainbow - Cliff Richard

Intro
Ooh...

1. Strophe
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high,
there's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby.
Ah-ah-oh, somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue,
and the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true.

1. Refrain
Ooh, 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 their chimney tops, that's where you'll find me.

2. Strophe
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly,
if they fly above the rainbow why then, oh, why can't I?
I, I, I, well, I see trees of green, and red roses too,
I'll watch them bloom for me and you,
and I think to myself what a wonderful world.

3. Strophe
Well I see skies of blue, and I see clouds of white,
and the brightness of daylight, darkness of night,
and I think to myself what a wonderful world.

Bridge:
The colours 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."
And I hear babies cry, and I watch them grow,
they'll learn much more than, than we'll know,
and I think to myself what a wonderful world.

2. Refrain
Oh, 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.
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow way up high,
birds fly over the rainbow why then, oh, why can't I, I-I-I?

Coda
Oooh...
