In many ways I'll miss the good old days
Someday
Someday

It hurts to say but I want you to stay
Sometimes

Sometimes

My ex says I'm lacking in depth
I will do my best
You say you want to stand by my side
Darling, your head's not right

I say alone we stand, together we fall apart
Yeah I think ill be alright
I'm working so I won't have to try so hard
Tables they turn sometimes

Oh my ex says I'm lacking in depth
Still I will try my best
You say you want to stand by my side

Darling, your head's not right
I say alone we stand together we fall apart
Yeah I think ill be alright
I'm working so I won't have to try so hard

Tables they turn sometimes
Oh someday
I ain't wasting no more time
