Over the years, I've come across many songs I love, but my favorite song is "Over the Rainbow" from the Wizard of Oz movie. I used to sing the song {secretly} aloud, wishing I was Judy Garland in her beautiful gingham dress and pigtails, traveling the "world" and flying off in great balloons. Well, at least I have the hair.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops.
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?
Day 19 of All Good Things: Spending the day shopping with my favorite Northern-turned-Southern teacher friend. And quite possibly some relaxing by the pool/sun time.
