Somewhere over the rainbow
Where insipid dreams come true
A fairy-tale place, where you trusted me
And where I trusted you.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Where love is as it should be
Where I don't end up hurting you
And you stop hurting me.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Where all our dreams come true
You learn to stop deceiving me
And I, deceiving you.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Where days and nights are young
Where songs of pity, pride and pain
Are left unheard, unsung.

Somewhere over the rainbow
The sun, it dared to shine
And I did dare to sit by you
And hold your hand in mine.

Somewhere over the rainbow
A nightingale did trill
In pale moonlight, beside the lake
we sat, and time stood still.

Somewhere over the rainbow
I heard you laugh with glee
Tintinnabulation
Laughing there with me.

But this side of the rainbow
The world is bleak and bare
The night is dark; and cold; and long
My rainbow isn't there.
