For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it.”

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somewhere_Out_There_%28James_Horner_song%29:
"Somewhere Out There" is a
song
written by
James Horner,
Barry Mann and
Cynthia Weil. Its single was released by American recording artists,
pop
rock icon
Linda Ronstadt and
R&B musician
James Ingram. Originally, it appeared in the
1986
animated
film
An American Tail, recorded by actors Phillip Glasser and Betsy
Cathcart in the role of their fictional characters as Fievel and Tanya
Mousekewitz. Steven Spielberg, the producer of An American Tail, invited songwriters Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil to collaborate with James Horner on four songs for the film's soundtrack, to be completed in a four week timeframe. The composers "felt no pressure to come up with a radio-friendly hit" and were surprised when Spielberg felt "Somewhere Out There" had Top 40 hit potential and recruited world renowned recording artists, Linda Ronstadt and James Ingram, to record a pop version of the song for the film's closing credits..[1] In the main body of the film, "Somewhere Out There" was performed by Phillip Glasser and Betsy Cathcart in the characters of the anthropomorphic mice Fievel and Tanya Mousekewitz. Produced by Ronstadt's regular producer Peter Asher, the single release of the Ronstadt/Ingram track debuted at #31 on the Adult Contemporary chart in Billboard dated 15 November 1986 crossing over to the Billboard Hot 100 dated 20 December 1986 with a #83 debut. In January 1987 "Somewhere Out There" returned Ronstadt to the Top 40 after a four year absence to eventually peak at #2 that March, behind "Jacob's Ladder" by Huey Lewis and the News. One of the last commercially released 45 RPM singles to be certified Gold for US sales of one million units, "Somewhere Out There" was also a major UK hit (peaking at #8), marking Ronstadt's first of three appearances in the UK Top 10... |

From My Friend, Daniel, of UT - 01/09/15:
“If prayer is only a
spasmodic cry at the time of crisis, then it is utterly selfish, and we
come to think of God as a repairman or a service agency to help us only
in our emergencies. We should remember the Most High day and
night---always---not only at times when all other assistance has failed
and we desperately need help. If there is any element in human life on
which we have a record of miraculous success and inestimable worth to
the human soul, it is prayerful, reverential, devout communication with
our Heavenly Father.”

Somewhere out there beneath the pale moonlight
Someone's thinking of me and loving me tonight
Somewhere out there someone's saying a prayer
That we'll find one another in that big somewhere out there
And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star
And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky
Somewhere out there if love can see us through
Then we'll be together somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true
And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star
And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky
Somewhere out there if love can see us through
Then we'll be together somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true
