Someday

(Jim McBride - Alan Jackson)



She looked me in the eye and said, ''It's over

I can't take this heartache anymore.''

She said, ''Don't tell me lies and try to please me

I've heard it all so many times before.



And I took her by the arm and said, ''Don't leave me

There's nothin' in this world I wouldn't do

Just give me time I'll be the man you've needed.''

She said, ''I wish that I could take that for the truth.''



And I said, ''someday

I'll get my life straight.''

And she said, ''It's too late

What's done is done.''

And I told her, ''Someday.''

She said, ''I can't wait

'Cause sometimes someday just never comes.''



She said, ''All I've ever wanted was to love you

And somewhere deep inside me I still do

But now I think it's time I stopped believin'

'Cause I'm never gonna see a change in you.''



And I said, ''Someday

I'll get my life straight.''

And she said, ''It's too late

What's done is done.''



And I told her, ''Someday.''

She said, ''I can't wait,

'Cause sometimes, someday just never comes,

'Cause Sometimes, someday just never comes...''
