Lyrics

Somewhere there's music

Somewhere there is music

How faint the tune

Expressing the subtle presence of music

Somewhere there's heaven

Somewhere there is heaven

How high the moon

Emphasizing the uplifting feeling, comparing it to the height of the moon

There is no moon above

No moon in the sky

When love is far away too

When love is distant

Till it comes true

Hopes for the realization of dreams

That you love me as I love you

Expressing mutual love


Somewhere there's music

Somewhere there is music

How near, how far

Describing the varying proximity of the music

Somewhere there's heaven

Reiterating the concept of heaven

It's where you are

Heaven is defined by the presence of the loved one

The darkest night would shine

The idea that even the darkest night becomes bright with the arrival of the beloved

If you would come to me soon

Expressing longing for the loved one to come soon

Until you will, how still my heart

Highlighting the stillness of the heart in the absence of the loved one

How high the moon

Repeating the idea of the uplifting effect of love, comparing it to the height of the moon


Somewhere there's music

Somewhere there is music

How faint the tune

Reiteration of the ethereal nature of music

Somewhere there's heaven

Reiteration of the heavenly quality associated with love

How high the moon

Re-emphasizing the profound impact of love, comparing it to the height of the moon

The darkest night would shine

Repeating the notion that even the darkest night becomes bright with the presence of the beloved

If you would come to me soon

Reiterating the longing for the loved one to come soon

Until you will, how still my heart

Repeating the stillness of the heart in the absence of the loved one

How high the moon

Final repetition of the idea of the uplifting effect of love, comparing it to the height of the moon
