[Verse 1: John Oates]
Ninety miles outside Chicago
Can't stop driving, I don't know why
So many questions, I need some answers
Two years later, you're still on my mind

[Daryl Hall]
Whatever happened to the Uptown Theatre?
It held up the stars up in the sky
Is true love just once in a lifetime?
Did the captain of the Titanic cry?

[Chorus: Both]
Someday we'll know
Why love can't move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you

[Verse 2: John Oates]
Does anybody know the way to Atlantis?
Or what the wind says when she cries?
I'm speeding by the place where I met you
For the ninety-seventh time (tonight)

[Chorus: Both]
Someday we'll know
Why love can't move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
We'll know why I wasn't there for you

Someday we'll know
If love is do or die for
Someday we'll know
Why it died so soon
Someday we'll know
That I wasn't there for you (you)

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Someday we'll know
Why Samson loved Delilah
One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know
That I was the one for you

[Verse 3]
I bought a ticket back to where I came from
I watched my past crash in the sea
If I could ask you just one question
Why aren't you here with me?

[Chorus: Both]
Someday we'll know
Why love can't move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you

Someday we'll know
If love is do or die for
Someday we'll know
Why it died so soon
Someday we'll know
That I wasn't the one for you

Someday we'll know
Someday we'll know
Someday we'll know

Someday we'll know
Someday we'll know
Someday we'll know

Someday we'll know
Someday we'll know
Someday we'll know

Hall & Oates

Hall & Oates released the first of their 18 albums in 1972 on Atlantic Records. They would go on to sell 13 million albums and 6 million singles primarily during the 70’s and 80’s when they recorded their most prolific and profound music. They blended rock, jazz, soul, and pop create a genre they titled rock and soul.

While their technical musicianship, innovative songwriting styles, and popular live performances were praised, they also had a fruitful partnership with their manager Tommy Mottola, who was helped Hall & Oates break into music videos before they were popular and made profitable financial deals by helping them get on the ground level of and corporate sponsorship of tours. Hall & Oates were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014.
