Someday
Milo Manheim & Meg Donnelly Lyrics

Oh
Expresses excitement, enthusiasm and anticipation.

La la la la la
Nonsensical words used to produce melody and rhythm.

Oh
A repetition of the excitement, enthusiasm, and anticipation expressed in the first line.

Yeah
Expresses concurrence and agreement.

I know it might be crazy
Acknowledges that the situation being discussed is not conventional.

But did you hear the story?
Asks if the listener is aware of the story being referred to.

I think I heard it vaguely
Indicates that the singer is not very familiar with the story.

A girl and a zombie
Specifies the two characters in the story.

Oh, tell me more, boy (yeah)
Expressions excitement and eagerness to know more about the story.

Sounds like a fantasy
Comments on the story being somewhat unrealistic.

Oh, what could go so wrong
Poses a rhetorical question highlighting the advantages of the situation.

With a girl and a zombie?
Expresses curiosity and wonder about how the story develops.

You're from the perfect paradise

And I'm living on the darker side
Indicates that the singer has had it harder than the listener.

Ooh, I've got a feeling
Suggests that the singer has strong intuition about the situation.

If you get to know me

Right from the start you caught my eye

And something inside me came to life
Expresses happiness and positivity brought by the listener.

Ooh, I've got a feeling
Restates the feeling mentioned in the previous verse.

If you get to know me
Repeated condition to make the listener aware of the emotions of the artist.

Someday

This could be, this could be ordinary
Suggests that the present situation might not be extraordinary.

Could we be something extraordinary?
Asks if the singer believes they could achieve something remarkable.

You and me side by side (yeah, yeah)
Paints a picture of cooperation and mutual dependence between the two characters.

Girl, you look delicious

Oh, I mean gorgeous
Corrects the initial statement to sound less creepy.

Well, now you're getting fearless
Celebrates the other character's newfound courage.

No, I'm just rooting for us

We'd be so flawless

Yeah, we could make these two worlds ours
Expresses the desire to synergize the two characters' worlds.
