Where Or When
Barbra Streisand · Color Me Barbra [1966]
Sometimes you think you've lived before all that you live today
Things you do come back to you as if they knew the way
Oh, the tricks your mind can play
It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But I can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing are the close you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when
Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again and so it seems we have met before
And laughed before and loved before but who knows where or when
Things you do come back to you as if they knew the way
Oh, the tricks your mind can play
It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But I can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing are the close you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when
Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again and so it seems we have met before
And laughed before and loved before but who knows where or when
