lyrics

All my ships have been burned and destroyed
To save my soul, I had to swim to shore
The natives tried to run me down, ran me out of town
And I don’t think they even knew what for
All my dreams have yet to come true
Always leavin’ me with nothin’ to do
Better times, and better rhymes
Is all I ever wanna do

Some day
Some day, baby
Some day, ooh….

I bin double-crossed, bin deceived, yeah
And I don’t even know just how
And when I look around me, no one here has found me
Why I didn’t know by now
There are lessons to be learned
From all the bridges I have burned
Nothin’ lost, but man, what a cost
I keep payin’ all I’ve earned

Some day
Some day, baby
Some day, ooh….

How many times will I turn around to find nobody standin’ there

In the darkness when I’m sleepin’ I can see the future
And it makes me get up and turn on the light
People talkin’ bout me, got no cause to doubt me
Still I just don’t think it’s right
I’ll be so proud one of these days
To see a smile on your face
Shinin’ on me, for all to see
To see your wisdom and your grace

Some day
Some day, baby
Some day, ooh….

Some day, yeah
Some day, baby
Some day, ooh….

I’m a legend in my own mind
Just waitin' for the right time
I’m a legend in my own mind
Just waitin' for the right time
I’m a legend in my own mind
Just waiting for the right time
Just waitin' for the right time
Just waitin' for the right time
Just waiting for the right time
Just waitin' for the right time
Na na na na na na na na
