SOMEWHERE by FREDERIC ROWLAND MARVIN

First Line: SOMEWHERE A PLACE IS WAITING
Last Line: CLOSE TO HER HEART FOR ME.
Subject(s): NATURE;

SOMEWHERE a place is waiting—
Has waited long for me;
I cannot tell if on the land,
Or in the deep blue sea.

It may be on the mountain-top,
By wandering breezes fanned;
Or in some lonely valley,
In a forsaken land.

But whether it be on the land,
Or, 'neath the boundless sea;
It is the place that Nature holds
Close to her heart for me.
