Lyrics
Somewhere in the world, there is a girl
Who’s been waiting for someone to start her day with
To travel peaks and valleys of the world
And when the day is done, someone to stay with
Two coffees with the right amount of cream
The morning paper puzzles fit together
A favorite movie on a tiny screen
Reminds him of the first time that he met her
To swap a window seat aboard a plane
To share the thrill of each new destination
The mountains of Nepal, castles in Spain,
The wilderness of hearts for exploration
So when you pack your bags and fly away
May clouds of darker days break through to blue
Please take my warm regards and give them to
The girl who gets to go somewhere with you.
