Somewhere Over The Rainbow Lyrics
Oooo, oooooo,ooooo,ooooooo
oooo,oooo
Ooooo,oooo,oooo
Oooooo,ooooo,ooooo,ooo,
oooo,oooo,ooo

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dream of
Once in a lullaby

Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
Blue birds fly
And the dreams that you dream of
Dreams really do come true

Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind....me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Oh, Somwhere over the rainbow
Blue birds fly
And the dream that you dare to
Why oh why can't I

Well I see trees of green
And red roses too
I watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

Well I see skies of blue
And I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the dark
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people passing by
See friends shakin hands saying
'How do you do?'
They're really sayin,'I, I love you."

I hear babies cryin
And are lost in hope
They'll know much more than we'll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

Oh, someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dare to
Why oh why can't I...I

Ooooo,oooo,ooooo,ooooo,oooo,oooo......

They played this at my dad's funeral, it was his favorite song.
I think it is about reflecting on life and how somewhere over the rainbow, it was beautiful, a.k.a, after death.

I cry when I hear this song.

Funny story: My father and I, last year, were at Disney World staying at Polynesian, which is a Hawaiian-themed resort. We were in a restaurant, Ohana, and they had a Hawaiian man wandering about the restaurant, playing a ukulele, singing Hawaiian songs. He didn't take requests or anything, but of course, my generous father went over, handed him a twenty, and asked him to play this song. And he did. He announced, "A man just requested one my favorite songs, thank you by the way, and I am happy to play for you. This one's for Israel." And he played it. It was beautiful.
My dad. =)
