Someday Lyrics

One day

We're gonna pave this gravel driveway

When all those commas show up in our bank

We'll be really living then

One day

When all our dreams finally come out to play

And all our waiting finally dissipates

Never to return again

Someday

When the world is spinning our way

And all our worries and our troubles fade

Just like the sunset with its final wave

Every branch will bend to give us shade

In a cosmic game of chess we'll yell out checkmate

Shaking hands and saying well played

When we finally get to someday

One day

Here to there won't seem so far away

Looking back across our yesterdays

Asking where'd the minutes go

One day

Will the children want to fly or stay

Look for joy out on some distant plain

Or will we have enough at home

Someday

When the world is spinning our way

And all our worries and our troubles fade

Just like the sunset with its final wave

Every branch will bend to give us shade

In a cosmic game of chess we'll yell out checkmate

Shaking hands and saying well played

When we finally get to someday

I can't wait

Marking every calendar with that date

Right on time it better not be too late

I'm running out of stars

In the meantime

What should I tell my heart

Just a little longer

It ain't growing any fonder

From these circles that I wander

Wander, wondering...

Someday

When the world is spinning our way

And all our worries and our troubles fade

Just like the sunset with its final wave

Every branch will bend to give us shade

In a cosmic game of chess we'll yell out checkmate

Shaking hands and saying well played

When we finally get to that place

All this time won't feel like such a waste

When we finally get to someday
