Something’s Coming Lyrics > Sondheim on Sondheim

[QUARTET]
Could be (Could be)
Who knows?
There’s something due any day—
I will know right away
Soon as it shows
It may come cannonballing down through the sky
Gleam in its eye
Bright as a rose
Who knows?

It’s only just out of reach
Down the block, on a beach
Under a tree
I got a feeling there’s a miracle due
Gonna come true
Comin’ to me!

Could it be? Yes, it could
Something’s coming, something good
If I can wait (If I can wait, if I can wait)
Something’s coming, I don’t know what it is
But it is
Gonna be great!

With a click, with a shock
Phone’ll jingle, door will knock
Open the latch (Open the latch, open the latch)
Something’s coming, don’t know when, but it’s soon
Catch the moon
One-hand?d catch!

Around the corner
Or whistling down the riv?r
Come on, deliver
To me! (To me, to me)

Will it be? (Will it be?) Yes, it will (Yes, it will)
Maybe just by holding still (Maybe just by holding still)
It’ll be there (It'll be there)
Come on, something, come on in, don’t be shy
Meet a guy
Pull up a chair!

The air
Is humming
And something great is coming!

Who knows?
It’s only just out of reach
Down the block, on a beach
Maybe tonight (Maybe tonight, maybe tonight)
Maybe tonight (Maybe tonight, maybe tonight)
Maybe tonight (Maybe tonight, maybe tonight)
Maybe tonight
