Summer Song- Something's Coming

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,

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 will jingle, door will 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,

& something great is coming!

Who knows?

It's only just out of reach,

Down the block, on a beach,

Maybe tonight . . .
