Somewhere
Josh Groban & Charlotte Church Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us somewhere
There's a time for us
Someday a time for us
Time together with time to spare
And time to care
Someday
Somewhere
We'll find a new way of living
We'll find there's a way of forgiving
Somewhere
There's a place for us (a place for us)
Somewhere there's a place for us
Hold my hand and we're half way there
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Someday (someday)
Somewhere (somewhere)
We'll find a new way of living
We'll find there's a way of forgiving
Somewhere
There's a place for us
A time and a place for us
Somewhere
Somewhere
Somewhere

The lyrics convey a sense of hope and longing for a time when the world will be less chaotic and there will be space to grow and learn. The opening lines "There's a place for us, Somewhere a place for us" set the mood for the rest of the song and make it clear that the singer and the person they love are searching for a place where they can belong.
The lyrics also speak to the idea of forgiveness and the importance of finding a new way of living. The lines "We'll find there's a way of forgiving, Somewhere" suggest that the singer and their partner have been through some difficult times, but they are willing to let go of past pain and offenses in order to move forward together. The song's message is ultimately one of unity, connection, and hope for the future.

I really wasn't expecting this strong of an emotional response to this video. I've heard this song before, but accompanied with this video it really touched me deeply. Thank you for this.

This version is as good as Larry Kert Carol Lawrence, which was previously the only (and original Broadway show) to listen to.
