  • A gypsy wind is blowing warm tonight
    The sky is starlit and the time is right
    And still you're telling me you have to go
    Before you leave there's something you should know
    Yeah something you should know babe

    I've seen you smiling in the summer sun
    I've seen your long hair flying when you run
    I've made my mind up that it's meant to be
    Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
    Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
    Out where the rivers meet the sounding sea
    You're high above me now
    You're wild and free ah, but
    Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
    Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me

    Some people say that love's a losing game
    You start with fire
    But you lose the flame
    The ashes smolder
    But the warmth's soon gone
    You end up cold and lonely on your own
    I'll take my chances babe
    I'll risk it all
    I'll win your love
    Or I'll take the fall
    I've made my mind up girl
    It's meant to be
    Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
    Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
    It's written down somewhere
    It's got to be
    You're high above me
    Flying wild and free
    Oh but someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
    Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
    Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
    Out where the rivers meet the sounding sea
    I feel it in my soul
    It's meant to be
    Oh someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
    Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
    You'll accomp'ny me, uh, uh, uh
    You'll accomp'ny me, I know you will accomp'ny me
    (You'll accomp'ny me) someday lady, someday lady
    (You'll accomp'ny me) you gonna accom'ny now
    You gonna walk with me and talk with me, and (you'll accomp'ny me)
    (You'll accomp'ny me) uh, uh, uh
    (You'll accomp'ny me) you gonna accomp'ny me uh, uh, uh
    You gonna accomp'ny me (you gonna accomp'ny me) someday uh, uh, uh Writer/s: Bob Seger
