Somewhere over the Rainbow

Hello:

Just want to say that the background music-"somewhere over the rainbow" is really suitable for this web site. Sort of like telling all the people that "somewhere over the rainbow, there will be a better place for all the homeless dogs in Taiwan ". Someday, when they close their tired eyes, they will all go to that "special place" God has created for them. No more tears or pain. Someday, those poor dogs will all become angels, and they will all be playing in that "special place over the rainbow".

許多人提過喜歡這一首背景音樂,因為它在情境上跟會客室很契合。

這本是美國經典電影「綠野仙蹤」(The Wizard of Oz, 1939)的主題曲,後來逐漸被引伸象徵「對夢想的追求」。沒想到在會客室,卻變成令人泫然的催淚音樂。

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.

One day 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, oh why can't I?

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?

作曲: Harold Arlen
