Historia piosenki Tekst oryginalnyWprowadzenie filmoweSomeplace where there isn’t any trouble...Do you suppose there is such a place, Toto?There must be.It’s not a place you can get to by a boat or a train.It’s far, far away...Behind the moon, beyond the rain Zwrotka wstępuWhen all the world is a hopeless jumbleAnd the raindrops tumble all around,Heaven opens a magic lane.When all the clouds darken up the skywayThere’s a rainbow highway to be found,Leading from your window paneTo a place behind the sun.Just a step beyond the rain. Zwrotka głównaSomewhere over the rainbow, way up high,There’s a land that I heard of once in a lullaby.Somewhere over that(/the) rainbow, skies are blue,And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true.

2x [Someday I’ll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far behind me.Where troubles melt like lemon drops high(/away) above the chimney tops,That’s where you’ll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly.Birds fly over the(/that) rainbow;
