Someday my day will come and I won't need a thing at all
Yes I can stand proud and tall and say just what I feel
Someday my day will come, when dreams become reality
I'll be the one I want to be, someday my day will come

It's a tiring path we travel through
For each step, I take Lord, I'm set back two
We all have roles in life to play
And I'll play a great one someday

Someday my day will come
I'll hold true love right in my hand
I'll touch the pretty rainbow's end
And my cup will overflow

Someday my day will come
And I'll watch my ship as it comes in
My castles won't be made of sand
Someday the day will come
I'll hold true love right in my hand
Someday my day will come
