Somewhere - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

She's older now than her mother was at her wedding

But she's younger than she feels she's ever been

She said, "I've seen the hills, they're much too tall for a twenty-something girl

And, Mama, womanhood's been hard to settle in"

But I'm on my way to somewhere, I swear

I'm on my way to somewhere, I swear

I'm on my way to somewhere with someone and, someday

You'll see me and be proud of where I've been

He's older now than his fathеr was when he moved out

Hе feels sheltered and ashamed of who he's been

He said, "I've seen the hills, they're much too tall for a twenty-something boy

And, Father, manhood's just been hard to settle in"

But I'm on my way to somewhere, I swear

I'm on my way to somewhere, I swear

I'm on my way to somewhere with someone and, someday

You'll see me and be proud of where I've been

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

You'll see me and be proud of where I've been

On the first step of their journey, they crossed paths, then

Each saw themselves in the way the other stepped

She said, "I've seen your eyes, they look like mine, they're scared of what's ahead

But maybe you're the someone for that"

Let's run away to somewhere together

Let's run away to somewhere ahead

We'll conquer every hilltop and someday we'll slow up

To turn around and be proud of where we've been

We'll turn around and be proud of who we've been
