Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You'll miss your honey
Some of these days
You'll feel so lonely
You'll miss my hugging
You'll miss my kisses
You'll miss me, honey
I feel so lonely
Just for you only
For you know, honey
You've had your way
And when you leave me
I know you'll grieve me
You'll miss your little honey
Some of these days
The lyrics to Sidney Bechet With Humphrey Lyttelton And His Band's song "Some Of These Days" depict a situation where the singer is warning their significant other that they will soon regret leaving them. The lyrics suggest that the person leaving will miss the physical and emotional connection they had with the singer, such as hugging and kissing. The singer is aware of their partner's intention to leave, but feels lonely and wishes their partner would stay with them. The use of the phrase "some of these days" suggests that the feeling of loneliness and regret will not be immediate, but will come in the future.
The lyrics can be interpreted as a warning to someone who is taking their partner for granted. The singer is confident that the person leaving will realize what they're missing out on and will want to come back, but there is a hint of bitterness and sadness in the lyrics as well. The use of repetition in lines such as "you'll miss your honey" and "you'll feel so lonely" emphasizes the emotions that the singer is trying to convey.
Overall, the song is a classic example of a love ballad that captures the pain and heartbreak of a relationship that is falling apart.
