Somewhere over the rainbow
There's a man who grants wishes
Even if it's just for show
A prince is the frog she kisses
Where fairy tales lie
You'll find Easy Street
Where the good ones never die
(young)

But that ain't the way it works
It's never too easy
If you looks at life's quirks
It's never too easy
(here)

Pinocchio became a real boy
Alice went through the looking glass
Everyone got a brand new toy
And Humpty had class
Because the house is made of candy
When you press the easy button
It's all sort of dandy
(lion)

But that ain't the way it works
Life can't be so easy
But that ain't the way it works
Life ain't so easy
(after all)

How do you know we're not true?
Are you able to know without knowing me?
Did someone tell you what would happen?
Or are you sure without knowing me?

I think there's a time for, "I love you,"
Even if that time is not now.
I think there's a time for us two,
Even if I don't know how.

How can you be so certain,
With so much still yet to learn?
How do you know already?
Or is it the uncertainty you fear?

I think there's a time for courting,
Even if that time is not now.
I think there's a time for closeness,
Even if I don't know how.
