Somewhere Lyrics

There's a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us somewhere

There's a time for us
Someday a time for us
Time together with time to spare
Time to love
Time to care
Someday
Somewhere

We'll find a new way of living
We'll find a way of forgiving
Somewhere

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

Somewhere
Somewhere

There's a place for us
A time and a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Somehow
Someday
Somewhere

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Really. I thought it was a song from West Side Story myself.

Um. I'm sorry, but this song is not about communism. Where the hell does it say so in the frist place? As a matter of fact, Honestfi, you're right, it is a song from West Side Story, and you'll find a version from several artists, most operatic such as Michael Crawford for one. It's a wonderful song, I must say this is quite a unique way of redoing an opera song! The lyrics speak for themself. It's simply about falling in love, and wanting to be together forever, somewhere quiet, peaceful, serene.
