So we raced each other downhill on the sidewalk
And we raised each other, two against the world
And we promised not to bow, we made a solemn vow
To keep our Independence flags unfurled
So when the battles of the spirit left us stranded
Each went hiding in our separate ways
Ah, but carrying a candle to keep the fire burning
To find us here in brighter days
Chorus:
Someday Soon made a promise I will follow
Someday Soon is why I try
Someday Soon told me: "Take this cup of
Empty hope up to the well that`s dry
Where there`s just enough of Someday Soon to satisfy"
You have done all the adventures I have dreamed of
And I have run a different path but just as fine
Ah, but both of us have missed, we haven`t closed
The distance on the destination peace of mind
For it seems as if it`s always half together
There is no happy-ever-after magic wand
The lightning pulls the thunder, the distance
Pulls the wonder that calls us farther on
Chorus
Now if heaven is perfection
I`ll get my deepest questions answered
Like a child tears into presents
To a Christmas tune
But in that big hall, let there be a
Bright red ribbon that stays
Wrapped around the mystery
Of Someday Soon
