TUNESMITH TUESDAY - "Something's Coming" from "West Side Story"


Something's Coming

Could be, who knows? There's something due any day
I would know right away soon as it shows
It may come cannon balling 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, coming to me

Could it be? Yes, it could
Something's coming, something good 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'll knock, open the latch
Something's coming, don't know when but it's soon
Catch the moon, one handed catch

Around the corner or whistling down the river
Come on, deliver to me

Will it be? Yes it will
Maybe just by holding still, 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
