    Ooh, ooh, ooh
    Ooh, ooh
    Somewhere over the rainbow
    Way up high
    And the dreams that you dream of
    Once in a lullaby
    Somewhere over the rainbow
    Bluebirds fly
    And the dreams that you dream of
    Dreams really do come true
    Someday, I wish upon a star
    Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
    Where trouble melts like lemon drops
    High above the chimney top
    That's where you'll find me
    Somewhere over the rainbow
    Bluebirds fly
    And the dreams that you dare to
    Oh why, oh why can't I?
    Well, I see trees of green and red roses too
    I'll 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
    And also on the faces of people passing by
    I see friends shaking hands saying
    How do you do?
    They're really saying I, I love you
    I hear babies cry and I watch them grow
    They'll learn much more then we'll know
    And I think to myself what a wonderful world
    World
    Someday I wish upon a star
    Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
    Where trouble melts like lemon drops
    High above the chimney top
    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?
    Ooh, ooh

      Well I guess it does if that's what you believe but honestly my life doesn't feel like s*** cuz I don't believe my life feels like s*** you got to find it somewhere somewhere deep down in you the positiveness the negative talk the negative ways keeps you down the positive people the encouragement keeps you going forward the negative people around you the negative talk keeps you down you got to stay positive look towards a brighter future regardless of the BS around you that's the only thing that keeps me going in life s*** happens I've learned to suck it up and move on or move around it because what I'm looking forward to is better then stopping in to and dwelling in the BS

    An absolutely beautiful song. Thank you.

    He’s over the rainbow because they dump his ashes to the ocean (Hawaiian culture) and when the water evaporates it turns to clouds then when it rains and when the sun shines over the rain he’s truly over the rainbow 🌈
