Where Or When Songtext / Lyric

where or when
written by richard rodgers and lorenz hart

When you’re awake
The things you think
Come from the dreams you dream
Thought has wings,
And lost of the things
Are seldom what they seem.
Sometimes you think you’ve lived before
All that you live today.
Things you do comeback to you,
As though they knew the way
Oh, the tricks your mind can play!

It seems we stood and talked like this before.
We locked at each other in the same way then,
But I can’t remember where or when.
Th eclothes you’re wearing are the clothes you wore.
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then,
But I can’t remember where or when.
Some things that happen for the first time,
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems that we have met before,
And laughed before,
And loved before,
But who knows where or when.

It seems we stood and talked like this before.
We locked at each other in the same way then,
But I can’t remember where or when.
The clothes you’re wearing are the clothes you wore.
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then,
But I can’t remember where or when.
Some things that happen for the first time,
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems that we have met before,
And laughed before,
And loved before,
But who knows where or when.
