"Someday" Shawn Colvin
Is this it?


There ain't a lot that you can do in this town.
Drive down to the lake and then you turn back around.
Go to school and learn to read and write.
So you can walk into the county bank and sign away your life.

I work at the fillin' station on the Interstate.
Pumpin' gasoline and countin' out of state plates.
They ask me how far into Memphis girl, and where's the nearest beer.
They don't even know that there's a town around here.

Someday I'm finally gonna let go.
I know there's a better way.
I wanna know what's over that rainbow.
I'm gonna get out of here someday.
Someday.

Now my brother went to college cause he plays football.
Me I never even got through High School at all.
I got me a 67 Chevy, she's low and sleek and black.
Someday I'll put her on the Interstate and never look back.

Someday I'm finally gonna let go.
I know there's a better way.
I wanna know what's over that rainbow.
I'm gonna get out of here some,
I'm gonna get out of here someday.
Someday, someday.

Before I Go

I’ve been looking for the heart
To keep on pushing through this life
Making circles in the dark
And hoping for some light
To help me carry on

Someday I’m gonna walk away
Someday I’m gonna let it go
Someday I won’t be here to stay
But I pray for love before I go

I’ve been dying to believe
I haven’t just been wasting time
Tracing footsteps endlessly
And hoping for a sign
To show me I’m not wrong

Someday I’m gonna walk away
Someday I’m gonna let it go
Someday I won’t be here to stay
But I pray for love before I go
