? No. 3 Something's Coming
|
|
?TONY
|
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 know?...
|
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, I don't know what it is,
|
But it is
|
Gonna be great!
|
|
With a click, with a shock,
|
Phone'll jingle, door'll 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 tne 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,
|
And somethinggreat is coming!
|
Who knows?
|
It's only just out of reach,
|
Down the block, on a beach,
|
Maybe tonight...

(By the time the mambo music starts, the Jets and Sharks are
|
each on their own side of the hall. At the climax of the

dance, Tony and Bernardo's sister, Maria, see one another; as a

delicate cha-cha begins, they slowly walk forward to meet each
|
other.)
|
|

I think now I never will.
