Some Of These Days
Beyond The Sea Lyrics

The song, "Some of These Days" by Beyond The Sea, is a classic tune that speaks to the aspect of longing and being missed. The song is about a relationship that is fizzling out, and one person is trying to make the other realize that they will eventually miss them. The first two lines, "Some of these days, you're gonna miss me, baby. Some of these days, you'll feel so lonely," set the tone straight away. The singer lets their partner know that they will get to a point where they miss them so much that they will feel truly alone.

The chorus, "You're gonna miss my huggin', you'll miss my kissin', you may even miss me, baby, when I'm gone away," emphasizes the singer's point. They want their partner to know that they will miss every little thing about them when they are gone. The second verse builds upon the first, "You're gonna feel lonely and want me only, 'cause you know, honey, you always got your way." Here, the singer lets their partner know that they will eventually realize that they always got what they wanted at the expense of the relationship.

The bridge, "Say baby if you really want me, oh yeah, you know it's gonna grieve me, you're gonna miss your boney little daddy, 'cause one of these yeah, said some of these days, I'll do it Sophie, you're gonna miss me honey, and I'm talkin' about days when you feel all blue," is a plea to their partner to realize how much they mean to them. They ask their partner to think about how much they want them and how much not having them in their life will hurt them. The chorus repeats itself again, and the singer ends the song with a powerful threat, "And if-a you-a leave me, you know it's gonna grieve me, you'll miss-a your brown-eyed daddy, grab it now. Some of these days."

Overall, the song is a melancholic portrayal of a love that is coming to an end. The singer knows that they will eventually be missed but feels powerless to change the course of events. Through their lyrics, they express their hopes that their partner will realize how much they mean to them before it's too late. The song does an excellent job of capturing the emotions that come with being in a failing relationship and how painful the eventual end can be.
