Over The Rainbow - Live

Lyrics

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 windowpane
 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?
