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
Someday life will be fairer
Need will be rarer
And greed will not pay
God speed this bright millennium on its way
And let it come someday
Someday our fight will be won then
We'll stand in the sun then
That bright afternoon, oh
'Til then, on days when the sun is gone
We'll hang on
And we'll wish upon the moon, whoa
There are some days, dark and bitter (dark and bitter)
Seems we haven't got a prayer (haven't we got a prayer)
But a prayer for something better
Is the one thing we all share
Someday (someday)
When we are wiser (when we are wiser)
When the world's older (when the world's older)
When we have learned (when we have learned)
I pray (I pray) someday we may (yet live) let live
To live and let live (to live, to live, to live, to live) and let live (oh)
Someday life will be fairer (life will be fairer)
Need will be rarer (need will be rarer)
Greed will not pay (no, no, no)
God speed, this bright millennium
Let it come, wish upon the moon
One day
Someday soon, ooh
One day (someday)
Someday soon
