Someday
ÌðÃÛÉäÏß(Sugar Ray) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Someday when my life has passed me by
I'll lay around and wonder why you were always there for me
One way, in the eyes of a passer by
I'll look around for another try and they'll fade away

Just close your eyes and I'll take you there
This place is warm and without a care
We'll take a swim in the deep blue sea
I go to leave as you reach for me

Some say better things will come our way
No matter what they try to say you were always there for me
Some way, when the sun begins to shine
I hear a song from another time and they fade away
And fade they away

Just close your eyes and I'll take you there
This place is warm and without a care
We'll take a swim in the deep blue sea
I go to leave as you reach for me

Ohhh, come on
Someone said you tried to long (you will pass me by)
Someone said we got it all wrong (all wrong)
Someone said we tried to long (you will pass me by)
Every thinks were right belong

So far so long so far away
So far so wrong so far away away away

Someday when my life has passed me by
I'll lay around and wonder why you were always there for me
One way, in the eyes of a passer by




I'll look around for another try and fade away
And fade away (repeats many times till it fades out)

Overall Meaning

In the song "Someday" by Sugar Ray, the lyrics tell the story of a person who is reflecting on their life, anticipating a time when they will be old and nearing their last days. The singer contemplates how someone was always there for them, even though they remained faceless for a time. As they try to come to terms with their eventual death, they recall a wonderful, warm place where they found refuge, and where they could forget their troubles. But unfortunately, they have to leave and face the reality of their situation. The chorus "Just close your eyes and I'll take you there. This place is warm and without a care. We'll take a swim in the deep blue sea. I go to leave as you reach for me" can be interpreted to mean that the only way to escape life's difficulties is through imagination, and the company of loved ones.

Lyrics:
Some say when hearts race there's no saving grace
Tho cruel fate I'll just wait cuz nothing can sway
Someday maybe they'll change you, change you
But don't let, don't let'em lead you, lead you astray
Stay young, stay young
Cuz someday they'll try to break you, break you
But baby I won't let'em take you, take you away
Take you away
We might pace and time chase but there lies a place
Where all hopes and all saints collide face to face
Someday maybe they'll change you, change you
But don't let, don't let'em lead you, lead you astray
Stay young, make love
Cuz someday they'll try to break you, break you
But baby I won't let'em take you, take you away
Take you away
Someday maybe they'll change you, change you
But don't let, don't let'em lead you, lead you astray
Stay young, stay young
Cuz someday they'll try to break you, break you
But baby I won't let'em take you, take you away
Take you away
Someday maybe they'll change you, change you
But don't let, don't let'em lead you, lead you astray
Stay young
Cuz someday they'll try to break you, break you
But baby I won't let'em take you take, you away
Take you away

@user-ve4ur3pg5u

Что-то давно никто не комментировал. Выдающаяся певица. Прекрасное живое исполнение. Не то что нынешние электронные голоса, доведённые через компьютер из ничтожества до совершенства. Эта певица - оригинал! Удачи ей!

@1970...

замечательная, талантливая, все композиции - хиты, на мой взгляд.
