Somewhere, Someday
Eternal Hope: Somewhere, Someday's Poignant Tale
Lyrics
When I was young and in love
Reflecting on youth and love
I thought everything would be okay
Expecting things to work out positively
Now I'm old and alone
Expressing aging and solitude
And the colour has faded to grey
Symbolizing a loss of vibrancy and joy
And I haven't seen you
Not having encountered the person since departure
Since the day you sailed away
Recalling the day of separation
But I hope that I'll see you again
Expressing hope for a future meeting
Somewhere, someday
Anticipating a reunion at an unspecified time and place
Now I heard that you've got
Learning about the person's residence in Ohio
A little place in Ohio
Wishing happiness for the person
And I hope that you're happy
Expressing increased desire if the person is not happy
If you're not, then I want you more
Driving to the coast and contemplating
Well I drive to the coast
Looking out to sea from the shore
And I look out from the shore
Longing for the person's return
Hoping one day
Expressing hope for a permanent return
You'll come sailing back for evermore
Reiterating the absence since departure
And I haven't seen you
Repeating the absence since departure
Since the day you sailed away
Reiterating hope for a future meeting
But I hope that I'll see you again
Reaffirming the desire for a reunion
Somewhere, someday
Reiterating anticipation of a meeting in the future
No, I know that I'll see you again
Certainly expecting a future encounter
Somewhere, someday
Reiterating the certainty of a future reunion
