Someday
[ESMERALDA]
I used to believe
In the days I was naive
That I live to see
A day of justice dawn
And though I will die
Long before that morning comes
I'll die while believing still
It will come when I am gone


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

[ESMERALDA (PHOEBUS)]
Someday life will be fairer. (Someday life will be fairer)
Need will be rarer. (Need will be rarer)
Greed will not pay.(Greed will not pay.)
Godspeed, this bright millennium (Godspeed)
On its way

[BOTH]
Let it come someday
[GYPSIES]
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

[ESMERALDA]
There are some days black and bitter
There are days we haven't got a prayer

[PHOEBUS]
But the prayer for something better
Is the one thing we all share, (we all share)

[COMPANY]
We all share!

Someday our fight will be won then
We'll stand in the sun then
That bright afternoon
'Till then, in days when the sun is gone
Hope lives on
Wish upon the moon
Change will come-
[PHOEBUS]
One day

[COMPANY]
Someday-

[ESMERALDA]
Soon
