Some Enchanted Evening Lyrics

Some enchanted evening, you may see a stranger,

You may see a stranger across a crowded room,

And somehow you know, you know even then,

That somehow you'll see here again and again.

Β 

Some enchanted evening, someone may be laughing,

You may hear her laughing across a crowded room,

And night after night, as strange as it seems,

The sound of her laughter will sing in your dreams.

Β 

Who can explain it, who can tell you why?

Fools give you reasons, wise men never try.

Β 

Some enchanted evening, when you find your true love,

When you hear her call you across a crowded room,

Then fly to her side and make her your own,

Or all through your life you may dream all alone.

Β 

Once you have found her, never let her go,

Once you have found her, never let her go.

Β 

β€œSome Enchanted Evening” is a classic show tune from the 1949 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical South Pacific. It’s one of the most celebrated songs from the musical and has been described as β€œthe single biggest popular hit to come out of any Rodgers and Hammerstein show.” Andrew Lloyd Webber even hailed it as the "greatest song ever written for a musical".

Β 

The song is a romantic ballad sung by the character Emile de Becque, a French plantation owner, expressing his love for Ensign Nellie Forbush, an American navy nurse. The lyrics convey the magical moment of meeting a stranger and feeling an instant connection, with the hope of finding true love. It’s a powerful piece that has been covered by many artists over the years, including versions by Frank Sinatra, Perry Como and The Temptations.

Β 

In the context of the musical, β€œSome Enchanted Evening” is a pivotal moment where Emile reflects on the enchanting evening when he met Nellie, emphasizing the theme that when you find your true love, you must pursue it or risk dreaming alone forever. The song has been a favorite for many and continues to be a staple in the repertoire of romantic musical theater songs.
