Someday
Lyrics:
[English]
There's somewhere out across the sea
In a land that's lost and free
With my darling close to me
That is where I'm supposed to be
We're somewhere on the ocean breeze
And around the swinging trees
With the only one for me
That is where I long to be
Someday
Someday yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We're somewhere out upon the beach
Out of range and out of reach
With the truest love of mine
Underneath the bluest sky
Yeah, far away from any town
We'll watch the lazy sun go down
With my sweetheart I lay down
That is where I will be found
Someday
Someday yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
...
