SOMEWHERE TONIGHT.

Night and another day is done,
The whole world should he at rest.,
To compensate for a day of work and
worries,
To fill with new hope and znst.
Sleep to soothe the tired bodies,
Forgetfulness in sweet dreams of
peace;
For the night was born to rest every
mind,
Until the sun shall rise in the east
Yet somewhere tonight some one can't
rest,
Their burden seems too great to
bear;
Their hope in this world of darkness
seems,
Just to see one ray of light over
there.
Somewhere, somebody's head is bowed
low,
And a heart is bleeding in pain;
Some one may be grieving over USE
less life,
Wasted and gone without thought o:
aim.
Somebody is lost in a world that is
strange,
Bewildered, frightened, and alone;
When dark waters seem to close over
their head,
When they can't call Their souls
their head, ,t
When they can't call their souls
their own.
War is raging somewhere tonight,
To make it all more sad;
Bloodshed and riotous destruction,
In a world gone suddenly mad
Where is the peace that some used to
know,
Will worry and peace ever part,
When will happiness take the place,
Of disconnected broken hearts?
Night and the beat of a, million hearts
Beats tattoo on the walls of strife.
But maybe if we play bad hand good
Our problems will dissolve into a
happier life.
