i can see it from the fantasticks

Barbra Streisand

Beyond that road lies a shining world
Beyond that road lies despair
Beyond that road lies a world thatââ?¬â?¢s gleaming
People who are scheming...
Beauty, hunger, glory, sorrow, never a pain or care
But Iââ?¬â?¢m liable to find a couple of surprises there...
Thereââ?¬â?¢s a song I must sing, itââ?¬â?¢s a well known song,
But the tune is bitter
And it doesnââ?¬â?¢t take long to learn, I can learn!
Pretty little world that beams so bright
That pretty little world that seems delightful cambered
Let me learn...Let me learn...
For I can see it, shining somewhere
Bright lights somewhere invite me to compare and learn
And Iââ?¬â?¢m ready, I can hear it silent singing
Inside my ear, I hear them all singing of love!
Who knows maybe all the visions that I see
May be waiting just for me to say
Take me there and make me see it, make me feel it
I know it so, I know that it really may be...
Let me learn!
