Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" are about hope, dreams, and the desire to escape to a better place. The song speaks of a land that is far away, a place where the skies are blue, and the dreams that people have actually come true. The listener is encouraged to wish upon a star, to envision a future where their worries and troubles disappear.

Throughout the song, the imagery of the rainbow and bluebirds flying above it is used to represent the unattainable dream that the singer hopes to reach someday. The repetition of the lines "somewhere over the rainbow" and "why, oh why can't I?" reinforces the idea that the dream is far away and out of reach, but the hope of one day attaining it remains strong.

The song is a classic from the 1939 film "The Wizard of Oz." It was written by Harold Arlen and E.Y. Harburg and was originally sung by Judy Garland. The melody and lyrics have become iconic and have been covered by numerous artists in various genres throughout the years.
