Took a lot to get us this far

But you never seemed to notice

I know

You can't find the time in your day

You say

"We'll talk about it someday"

Someday's stacked on window sills

And the line between someday and never is fine

And the time is never right

Is it?

One of these days

You say

I'll finally get my way

One of these days

You say

I'll finally get my way

But you know

(I know)

And I know

(I know)

We're just chasing shadows

(I know)

But don't let it

(I know)

Be so

(I know)

And we know

(I know)

That it won't

So you go

And I won't

But the sun goes down

And your back's still turned to me

And my head's full of ghosts

It's not like we used to be

But I'm holding on to something

I think

As the light starts to fade

You don't notice me

One of these days

You say

I'll finally get my way

One of these days

You say

I'll finally get my way

But you know

(I know)

And I know

(I know)

We're just chasing shadows

(I know)

But don't let it

(I know)

Be so

(I know)

And we know

(I know)

That it won't

'Cause you want what you can't have

But you're happy to have it

And if that's true

I never stood a chance

I could give you my heart

But you'd rather play with it

But it's too late now

It's too late now

And the sun goes down

One of these days

You say

I'll finally get my way

One of these days

You say

I'll finally get my way

I'll finally get my way
