Over The Rainbow

Lucio Dalla


Somewhere over the rainbow 
Way up high 
There's a place that I 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 

Some day 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 oh why can't I? 

If happy little bluebirds fly 
beyond the rainbow why 
oh why can't I?
