someday,
when we are wiser,
when the world’s older
when we have learned
I pray someday we may yet live
to live and to let live

someday, life will be fairer
need will be rarer, and greed will not pay
God speed this bright millenium on its way,
let it come someday

someday, our fight will be won, and
we’ll stand in the sun in that bright afternoon
til then, on days when the sun is gone
we’ll hang on if we 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 love
and i pray, someday we may yet live
to live and one day, someday

someday, life will be fairer
need will be rarer, and greed will not pay
God speed this bright millenium
let it come if we wish upon the moon
one day, someday
soon

someday soon
