[Old Man:] At the break of dawn, she knocked on my door I was shocked She seemed so tired and sore And she said it’s been time For a change for so long All I know I have to I have to move on And I stood on the porch where we used to dance And the world, somehow, didnʼt make any sense And so I tried to smile, though I didn’t know why Watched her go And waved her And waved her goodbye
Someday Iʼll meet you, someplace I’ll greet you Somehow it’ll lead you back to me It may take a lifetime and be where the stars shine It may be the place where the earth and sky meet (x2)
And the years went by, but I did not forget Her touch, her lips The words that she said Suddenly just a glimpse And a warm well known smile Clear to see What kept her What kept her alive
Someday Iʼll meet you, someplace I’ll greet you Somehow it’ll lead you back to me It may take a lifetime and be where the stars shine It may be the place where the earth and sky meet (x2)
[Choir:] Someday I’ll meet you Someplace Iʼll greet you Somehow itʼll lead you Lead back to me (x4)
[Old Man:] Why should I seek? Why should I ask? What should I strive for if not you? Why should I seek? Why should I ask? Why should I strive? I am a Man
I am the word I am the deed I am the heart Thank God Iʼm a Man I felt the cold I felt the heat I felt the love Thank God Iʼm a Man
[Choir:] Why should I strive What should I seek if not you Why should I ask What should I seek, if not you? Why, what should I strive for if not you?
