Someday
We'll build a home on a hilltop high
You and I
Shiny and new a cottage that two can fill
And we'll be pleased to be called
The folks who live on the hill

And someday 
We may be adding a thing or two
A wing or two
We will make changes as any family will
And we'll be pleased to be called
The folks who live on the hill

Our veranda will command a view of meadows green
The sort of view that seems to want to be seen
And when the kids grow up and leave us
We'll sit and look at the same old view
Just we two

Darby and Joan 
Who used to be Jack and Jill
And we'll be pleased to be called
What we have always been called 
The folks who live on the hill

Our veranda will command a view of meadows green
You know the sort of view that seems, seems to wants to be seen
And when the kids grow up and they leave us
We'll sit and look at the same old view
Just we two

Darby and Joan 
Used to be Jack and Jill
And we'll be pleased to be called
What we have always been called 
The folks who live on the hill
