Alan Jackson Someday Official Music Video
“Someday” unfolds like a poignant chapter in the book of life, narrating the struggles and hopes of an individual facing adversity in a failed relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person dealing with challenges, all the while holding onto the belief that “someday” they will become a better person and fix their role in an intimate relationship. The simplicity of the language adds to the song’s accessibility, allowing listeners to relate to its universal themes of fixing things today rather than promising to make changes in the future. In this case, “Someday” is too late and the person has already ruined the relationship.
“Someday” was written by Alan Jackson and Jim McBride.
Alan Jackson Someday Lyrics
She looked me in the eye and said, “It’s over”
I can’t take this heartache anymore
She said, “Don’t tell me lies and try to please me
I’ve heard it all so many times before”
And I took her by the arm and said, “Don’t leave me
There’s nothin’ in this world I wouldn’t do
Just give me time, I’ll be the man you’ve needed”
She said, “I wish that I could take that for the truth”
And I said, “Someday
I’ll get my life straight”
And she said, “It’s too late
What’s done is done”
And I told her, “Someday”
She said, “I can’t wait
‘Cause sometimes someday just never comes”
She said, “All I’ve ever wanted was to love you
And somewhere deep inside me I still do
But now I think it’s time I stopped believin’
‘Cause I’m never gonna see a change in you”
And I said, “Someday
I’ll get my life straight”
And she said, “It’s too late
What’s done is done”
And I told her, “Someday”
She said, “I can’t wait
‘Cause sometimes someday just never comes
Oh, sometimes someday just never comes”
