VERSE
Somewhere there's a song that'll get me outta this mess
Somewhere there's a dream that was good enough for the rest
Somewhere there's a god out there who can see how hard we're tryin'
Somewhere there's a song that can keep me from cryin'.

VERSE
Somewhere there's a place where the pendulum don't swing
Somewhere there's a country where greed is not king
Somewhere people live without this weight upon their chest
Somewhere there's a place where together we shall rest.

BRIDGE
Sometimes I can plainly see why things must be this way
Sometimes it's not clear to me why we choose to live another day.

VERSE
Somewhere there's a sign that'll point me the right way
Somewhere a mother's voice is softly whispering it's okay
Somewhere there's a reason that'll make me wanna stay
Somewhere there's a sign I missed along the way.

{INSTRUMENTAL, THEN REPEAT BRIDGE }

VERSE
Somewhere there's a song that'll bring the light of day
Somewhere there's a second chance, somewhere another way
Somewhere there's a shinin' star but tonight it's outta sight
Somewhere there's a song that'll get me through this night.
