Someday
All-4-One Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Someday, when we are wiser
When the world's older
When we have learned
I pray someday we may yet
Live to live and let live

Someday life will be fairer
Need will be rarer
And greed will not pay
God speed this bright millennium on its way
Let it come someday

Someday our fight will be won then
We'll stand in the sun then
That bright afternoon

Till then, on days when the sun is gone
We'll hang on
And we'll wish upon the moon

There are somedays, darken rivers
Say we haven't got a plan
But I'm praying for something better
Is the one thing we all share

Someday, when we are wiser
When the world's older
When we have learned
I pray someday we may yet
Live to live and let live

Someday life will be fairer
Need will be rarer
Greed will not pay
God speed this bright millennium

Let it come
We will shall find a moon
One day someday soon





One day, someday soon
