Say it, say it again
Someday we'll be together
You're far away from me my love, and just as sure my
My baby as there are stars above
I wanna say, I wanna say, I wanna say some day we'll be together
Yes we will, yes we will say some day we'll be together
Someday day, some sweet day we will be together
My love is yours, baby
Oh, right from the start
You, you, you possess my soul now honey
And I know, I know you won my heart
And I wanna say someday (some sweet day) we'll be together
Ah, yes we will, yes we will
Someday we'll be together, tell everybody now
Ah, yes we will, yes we will
Long time ago my, my sweet thing, I made a big mistake, honey
I say, I said goodbye
Oh, oh baby ever ever, ever, never, never since that day now
Now all I, all I wanna do ah is cry, cry, cry, cry
Oh hey, hey, hey
I long for you, every night
Just to kiss your sweet, sweet lips
Hold you ever so tight and I wanna say
Someday we'll be together
Oh, yes we will, yes we will
Someday we'll be together
Oh, yes we will, yes we will
Someday we'll be together
Ah, honey, honey
Some day we'll be together
Yes we will, yes we will

I just watch "the making of motown" and they said the guy in this song Johnny Bristol was talking in the background and they decided to keep his remarks on the record

Right before my husband left for Vietnam for a year tour, this song would play on the radio every morning as I was dealing with morning sickness. Our daughter still loves to hear that story.

I lost my mom today at 5:50 a.m. due to advanced endometrial cancer. Over the last few days before she passed, I found myself listening to the Solid Gold Oldies music channel. This was the very first song that appeared on when I flipped to the channel. Maybe it was entirely coincidental, but I just think maybe mom was trying to tell me something. RIP MOM😭

When my very good friend died December 22, 2017.....The first song I heard after I received the sad news was Bryan Adams with "Heaven". I like to think she was sending me a message, that she was happy in Heaven.
