Someday is a song from the musical Der Glöckner von Notre Dame. Information technology was written by composer Alan Menken and lyricist Stephen Schwartz and originally recorded past American singer and actress Heidi Mollenhauer in her film role as the singing voice of Esmeralda. I out of three recordings, along with "In a Place of Miracles" and "As Long as There'southward a Moon", it was discarded during the storyboarding process of the moving picture and replaced with "God Help the Outcasts" equally directors Gary Trousdale and Kirk Wise both wanted a quieter song in scene when Esmeralda sings within the Notre Dame cathedral. Though non included in the torso of the film, Anytime is heard over the end credits, performed past R&B grouping All-4-One in the North American English release, and Eternal in the British English version. Luis Miguel recorded the version for the Latin American Spanish version, which became a major striking in United mexican states. The chanting used in the introduction to "The Bells of Notre Dame" at the very kickoff of the moving-picture show is really the melody of "Someday". In the German phase version, einmal occurs after Frollo gives Esmeralda his ultimatum in jail Esmeralda considers taking it if but to save Phoebus. Phoebus tells her she should do information technology for herself, and so she can live. Esmeralda says she doesn't consider a life with Frollo living. She then sings along with Phoebus and eventually with Clopin and the ensemble virtually how she hopes the world will larn after countless war and mortality to live and non to hate. Unlike Someday, Einmal'due south lyrics are less soft and gentle. In Anytime Esmeralda sings about the world condign more than mature and in Einmal she sings about the globe learning afterwards making error. The song ends as Esmeralda about to be put to death which makes this song all the more poignant and dramatic equally Esmeralda's dying wish for the earth.

Lyrics

ESMERALDA:
I used to believe
In the days I was naive
That I'd live to come across
A day of justice dawn
And though I volition die
Long before that morning time comes
I'll die while believing still
Information technology volition come up when I am gone

Someday
When we are wiser
When the world's older
When we accept learned
I pray
Someday nosotros may yet live
To live and permit live

ESMERALDA / PHOEBUS:
Someday
Life will exist fairer
Demand volition be rarer
Greed will not pay
God speed
This bright millennium
On its way
Let information technology come someday

CHORUS:
Someday
When nosotros are wiser
When the world'due south older
When we have learned
I pray
Someday nosotros may yet alive
To alive and let live

ESMERALDA:
At that place are some days
Blackness and bitter
It seems nosotros oasis't got a prayer

PHOEBUS:
But a prayer for something improve

PHOEBUS / ESMERALDA:
Is the ane thing we all share

CHORUS:
We all share
We all share

ALL:
Nosotros all share...
Someday
Our fight will be one then
We'll stand in the dominicus then
That bright afternoon
Till then
On days when the sun is gone
Hope lives on
Wish upon the moon
Change will come up

PHOEBUS:
One day...

CHORUS:
Someday...

ESMERALDA:
