TONY
There's a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us
Somewhere
MARIA
There's a time for us
Some day a time for us
Time together
With time to spare
Time to learn
Time to care
Someday
TONY
Somewhere
We'll find a new way of living
MARIA
We'll find a way of forgiving
Somewhere
TONY & MARIA
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
This has always been a song of hope for me ever since I first heard it in the film in the early 1960s. It's my favorite song - period. When one is always on the outside, trying to fit in, this song brings at least a bit of hope for the future.

When i saw this video my tears fall down and there is a space in my heart crying, i don't know why, the song is so meaningful.

This is an eternal love song. When the one person you've loved since the day you met dies, after a life together, there has to be a "Somewhere" in your heart.

I just saw an excellent touring production of West Side Story that had Anybodys (the tomboy) sing "Somewhere" while Jet / Shark couples danced. Very moving. Suddenly the lyrics were about gay equality.

Omg this song is soooooo sad, and then he just dies! There is just all this chemistry that shows they'll always have each other. I love it.

I adore this song. Why do people come and post that they hate the song on lyrics site? Shows they have nothing better to do with their time, or they are lying through their teeth

Obviously if you hate it don't come to the lyrics. The song isnt boring at all. It has depth and strong emotions behind it, which must mean you've never felt something like that before.

If you hate the song, then why come onto the lyrics? Personally, I was looking up the song to see what lines Maria sings to Tony as he dies. I'm singing it for an audition, and can't wait! It's fab!!!

Who wrote these lyrics? Yes! Right! Stephen Sondheim! I don't kno if you know this... But you can go to jail just because of those two names... Lyrics have rights you know?
