About Together

"Someday We'll Be Together" is a song written by Johnny Bristol, Jackey Beavers, and Harvey Fuqua. It was the last of twelve American number-one pop singles for Diana Ross & the Supremes on the Motown label. Although it was released as the final Supremes song featuring Diana Ross, who left the group for a solo career in January 1970, it was recorded as Ross' first solo single and Supremes members Mary Wilson and Cindy Birdsong do not sing on the recording. Both appear on the B-side, "He's My Sunny Boy". The single topped the Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart for one week, in the final 1969 issue of Billboard magazine (dated December 27). It would be the last number one hit of the 1960s.

Together, together
Like a leaf stuck to a tree
And that's the way it oughta be
With you and me, forever more

Never ooh, never
Do I ever think of you
Without including myself
Lying close to you, forever more

It's not so easy loving you
And yet still giving you your freedom
But like a butterfly with doubt
Without the room to breathe in
Don't you think I know?
So I let you go, so that we can stay
Together, however
Close I think we oughta be
We both should try to keep
Our own identity, separately

Whatever, clever
Plans I make away from you
Disappear the moment that I'm holding you
So tenderly
Don't you think I know
So I let you go, so that we can stay
Together, together
Give and take boy we can make it
In this world, together, together
Love is all we're fighting for
And tell me what is worth more
Than togetherness, forever more

Together, together
We're so lucky that we met
And fell in love
Together, together
Our love is all we're fighting for
Tell me what is worth more
Than togetherness, forever more
Together, forever
We're so lucky that we met
And fell in love
Together, together
