Here are the full lyrics to "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," originally from The Wizard of Oz and famously covered by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole: Somewhere Over the Rainbow
By Harold Arlen & E.Y. Harburg 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
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?

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's version combines this song with "What a Wonderful World," adding additional lyrics about seeing trees of green, red roses, and the beauty of the world, making it a medley celebrated worldwide
