Somewhere Lyrics

[RACHEL]
There's a place for us
Somewhere, a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us somewhere

[SHELBY]
There's a time for us
Someday, a time for us
Time together with time to spare
Time to learn, time to care
Someday!

[RACHEL]
Somewhere
We'll find a new way of living

[SHELBY]
Oh, we'll find a way of forgiving
Somewhere

[RACHEL]
Somewhere

[SHELBY & RACHEL]
There's a place for us
A time and a place for us
Hold my hand and we're halfway there
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Somehow
Someday
Somewhere!

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
