"Someday"

All along this song has touched me so deeply that I wanted to post it on my blog. I told myself I would never post lyrics of songs because they were so common in blogs but now I understand why some people do. The power of music and lyrics combined can sometimes be so powerful and inspiring that we want to affirm it and share it with the world. And with that, here is one song that has brought tears to my eyes simply because it spoke to me and told me about the world and its people...

Someday

By Disney

From the movie: The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996)

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
Wish upon the moon


There are some days dark and bitter
Seems we haven't got a prayer
But a prayer for something better
Is the one thing we all share

Someday
When we are wiser
When the whole world is 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
On it's way
Let it come
Someday
One day
Someday
Soon


Someday
Soon

Someday
Soon

Someday
Soon


I believe that someday we would learn to love like it was our last day on earth. I believe that someday we would learn that the most important things in life are usually not the ones we think are important. I believe that someday we would come to realise that we were put in this world to appreciate the beauty of life. Someday we would learn... when we wish upon the moon. Someday soon...
