Meg Hutchinson Somewhere
Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue ... Little bird outside my locked window in full song He knows no despair or laughter there For him the day is one moment long One moment long I have seen the beggar in me Tried to look her way and smile As she lifted up her head from her newspaper bed Even the smell made me reel What makes you real? Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue Birds fly over the rainbow Oh the lights have dimmed One girl in a hospital bed The stage is also gone And the nights can take so long Somewhere over the rainbow... I've been to the water thinking of Virginia With a weight clutched in each hand What with the richness of the dark The night owl calling I could not stay there long, stay there long Oh somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue Birds fly over the rainbow Why then oh why can't I?
