Lyrics Carole King

Carole King

Eventually

Was a time I remember

Hope flashed and went dim

When assassins just happened

To do the right people in

And love was the slogan

Coincidentally

And they told us they'd work it out

Eventually

In the swing of changing time

A man cried out for his

And every politician said

He was telling us like it is

Yes, they walked down the angry streets

To have themselves a look-see

And they told us they'd work it out

Eventually

I see the choking cities

I see them tearing up this earth

I see people feelin'

That their lives have little worth

And I know that the future

Depends on you and me

I hope we can work it out

Eventually

I hope we can work it out

Eventually

Hey, maybe someday

Hey, maybe someday

Hey, maybe someday

Eventually
