Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

Somewhere over the
Way up high
And the dreams that you dream of
in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds
And the dreams that you dream of
Dreams really do come

Someday, I wish upon a star
Wake up where the are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the top
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can't I?

Well, I see of green and red roses too
I'll watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to
What a wonderful world

Well, I see of blue and I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the
And I think to myself what a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
And also on the faces of people passing by
I see shaking hands saying
How do you do?
They're really saying I, I you

I hear babies and I watch them grow
They'll learn much more then we'll know
And I think to myself what a wonderful
World

Someday I wish upon a
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like drops
High above the chimney top
That's where you'll find me

Oh, over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dare to
Why oh, can't I?

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
