Noël Coward
Private Lives
With Gertrude Lawrence. As recorded in London, Sept. 15, 1930

—from Act I:

Someday I'll Find You

Someday I'll find you, moonlight behind you
True to the dream I am dreaming!
As I draw near you, you'll smile a little smile
For a little while, we shall stand, hand in hand!

I'll leave you never, love you forever
All our past sorrow redeeming
Try to make it true, say you need me, too
Someday I'll find you again!

—from Act II

I never realized that you cared for me
I never realized that such a thing could be
And when you went away
Then I was sad because
For then I realized
What a fool I was

A garden of Eden just meant for two
And no one to mar our joy
I would say such wonderful things to you
There would be such wonderful things to do
If I were the only girl in the world
And you were the only boy
Someday I'll Find You

When one is lonely the days are long
Life is so fleet
Why shouldn't we meet
Each night I sing you a lover's song
It's incomplete
My sweet, my sweet

Someday I'll find you, moonlight behind you
True to the dream I am dreaming
As I draw near you, you'll smile a little smile
For a little while, we shall stand, hand in hand!

I'll leave you never, love you forever
All our past sorrow redeeming
Try to make it true, say you need me, too
Someday I'll find you again
