Celeste There Will Come A Day Lyrics (From The Original Motion Picture “The Color Purple”)
No words
No one
No shoulder to cry on
One voice holds me
And lifts me to my feet
First steps
New world
I’ve no loss
I’ve no hurt
For this I’ve rehearsed
The first and final verse
It’s all a matter of timing
I’m more than just surviving
When the clouds break
And not a moment too late
There will come a day, there will come a day
There will come a day, there will come a day
There will come a day, there will come a day
And I’ll be there
Shining on
All day long
I smile because
It’s my time
Hmm, and no one’s
I live
And live for
Today and nothing more
Say what you’re gonna say ’cause
It’s nothing I haven’t heard
For this I’ve rehearsed
The first and final verse
It’s all a matter of timing
When I’m more than just surviving
When the clouds break
And not a moment too late
There will come a day, there will come a day
There will come a day, there will come a day
There will come a day, there will come a day
And I’ll be there
Shining on
All day long
And I’ll rise
And I’ll rise
And the tears that I cried
Never did nothing for me
Yeah
And I’ll rise
And I’ll rise
And the tears that I cried
Never did nothing for me
