{Recently I've been doing some
Research, for an album that I'm planning to do
And I came across what is
One of the finest songs I think ever written}
{But I thought I couldn't sing it
Because it's identified with one of the greatest singers who ever lived
But, the lyrics felt so right, so relevant tonight that
What the hell, I decided to sing it}
{But I would like to dedicate it to this wonderful woman who first sang it
This woman who I had the privilege of working with
And who touched me so deeply
Who knows she may even be listening}
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 window pane
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 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
Way 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 all those little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why oh, why can't I?
