Barbra Streisand - Over the Rainbow lyrics
[Barbra Streisand - Over the Rainbow lyrics]
Recently I've been doing someresearch
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's identified with one of the
Greatest singers who ever
Lived but, the lyrics felt so right
So relevant tonight thatwhat the hell
I decided to sing it but I
Would like to dedicate it
To th 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?
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's identified with one of the
Greatest singers who ever
Lived but, the lyrics felt so right
So relevant tonight thatwhat the hell
I decided to sing it but I
Would like to dedicate it
To th 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?
