My Song: Lyrics

OK this one's for Gabby
Ooooo oooooo ohoohohoo
Ooooo ohooohoo oooohoo
Ooooo ohoohooo oohoooo
Oohooo oohoooho ooooho
Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Once in a lullaby ii ii iii
Somewhere over the rainbow
Blue birds fly
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Dreams really do come true ooh ooooh
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me ee ee eeh
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops thats where you'll find me oh
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
And the dream that you dare to,why, oh why can't I? i iiii

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
Are 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
Than we'll know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world (w)oohoorld

Someday I'll 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 dream that you dare to, why, oh why can't I? I hiii ?

Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo

My Song: Somewhere Over the Rainbow/ What a Wonderful World

MY song is "Somewhere over the Rainbow/ What a Wonderful World" by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. I chose "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/ What a Wonderful World" as MY song because it has a very important meaning to me. On a rainy day in Oregon, my Grandma was brought home from the hospital, to take her last few breathes. When I was visiting her on that rainy day, my parents decided to start heading home but when we were home we got a frantic call from my Aunt, she had stayed with my grandma, she said something like "Grandma Jane just pasted away." When my Grandma took her last breath she was watching American Idol and at that very moment Katharine McPhee was singing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/ What a Wonderful World" That is why "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/ What a Wonderful World" is MY song. Whenever I hear this song it reminds me of her.
