Someday

I was just a boy, and I travelled on
I knew not where I'd lie
Oh, my ma was gone, my pa moved on
But I'd seen that blinding light

And a fire burned so deep and white
My heart was clear and bright
And I said some way, Lord, please someday let me kneel before your side

Now the light that shines through the
Smoking blinds tells tales of days gone by
Of my wife who left, of the tears I've wept
How I drink more than I'd like

And that fire burned all through the night
The flames took up the sky
And I said some way, Lord, please someday give me peace that satisfies

Well the years have come and the years have gone
And I've seen this all before
And if there's nothing new underneath the sun
What has been will be once more

And that fire burns, but it's not as bright
And it gets harder to recognize
But I'll learn some way, Lord, please someday

Not to seek, instead to find
Oh, I'll learn some way, Lord, please someday
Not to seek, instead to find
Oh, I'll learn some way, Lord, please someday
Not to seek, instead to find
