Someday from Unspoken Truth by Melanie Lowe

Someday

Who am I
To question why
The passing of a moment never says goodbye
It’s incomplete
Yet out of reach
And it has no way of knowing how you wonder why
It passes on
Forever strong
In the knowledge that you’ll soon be moving on
To so much more
Than was before
Like someday was a word you could take comfort from

Chorus
Like someday was a moment
We could find with time
Like someday was a destination far beyond your mind
Oh like someday you could fly their on wings that you procured
From someone, someplace, somehow, someday you’ll learn

I’ll take this now
Not asking how
A heart can still be strong enough to make a vow
And here I’ll stand
My shield in hand
And you can only stay as long as I allow
I’ll take what’s true
I’ll ask of you
Only all the things I think that you can do
And someday we could still be free
If someday is a word we can rely upon

Chorus

You’ve heard this all before
And maybe this time there’ll be more
To take away and keep it safe
If someday ever deigns to come your way
Like someday was someplace
