Somewhere Lyrics

Somewhere lyrics

A GIRL:

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,

Some day a time for us.

Time together and
time to spare,

Time to look, time to care

Some day!

Somewhere

We'll find a new way of living,

Will find there's 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...

Some day...

Somewhere...



PROCESSION AND NIGHTMARE

(The lovers hold out their hands to
each other, 

the others follow suit - Jets to Sharks;



Sharks
to Jets and form a sort of procession.)



ALL:

There's a place
for us...



(Suddenly there is a dead stop. The figures of Riff 

and Bernardo slowly walk on. The dream becomes a 

nightmare: as the
city returns, there are brief

reenactments of the knife fight, of the
deaths Maria 

and Tony are once again separated from each other by the

violent warring of the two sides. Maria tries to reach 

Bernardo, Tony
tries to stop Riff; the lovers try to 

reach each other but cannot.
Chaotic confusion and

blackness out of which they find themselves back in
the 

bedroom, clinging to each other desperately.)



TONY:

Hold my hand and we're halfway there

Hold my hand and I'll take you
there



TONY and MARIA:

Somehow...

Some day...

Somewhere!

(They sink back together on the bed.)
