Maybe someday youll be satisfied
When youve lost everything youll have nothing left to hide.
When youre through running over things like youre walking cross the tracks,
Maybe youll beg me to take you back.
Maybe someday youll find out everybodys somebodys fool,
Maybe then youll realize what it would have taken to keep me cool.
Maybe someday when youre by yourself alone
Youll know the love that I had for you was never my own.
Maybe someday youll have nowhere to turn,
Youll look back and wonder bout the bridges you have burned.
Youll look back sometime when the lights grow dim
And youll see you look much better with me than you do with him.
Through hostile cities and unfriendly towns,
Thirty pieces of silver, no money down.
Maybe someday, you will understand
That something for nothing is everybodys plan.
Maybe someday youll remember what you felt
When there was blood on the moon in the cotton belt.
When both of us, baby, were going though some sort of a test
Neither one of us could do what we do best.
I should have known better, baby, I should have called your bluff.
I guess I was too off the handle, not sentimental enough.
Maybe someday, youll believe me when I say
That I wanted you, baby, in every kind of way.
Maybe someday youll hear a voice from on high
Sayin "for whose sake did you live, for whose sake did you die? "
Forgive me, baby, for what I didnt do
For not breakin down no bedroom door to get at you.
Always was a sucker for the right cross.
Never wanted to go home til the last cent was lost.
Maybe someday you will look back and see
That I made it so easy for you to follow me.
Maybe someday therell be nothing to tell.
Im just as happy as you, baby, I just cant say it so well.
Never slumbered or slept or waited for lightning to strike.
Theres no excuse for you to say that we dont think alike.
You said you were going to frisco, stay a couple of months.
I always liked san francisco, I was there for a party once.
Maybe someday youll see that its true
There was no greater love than what I had for you.
