One of These Days
Lyricist:Nanci Caroline Griffith
We walk along the Hudson when it snows here in Manhattan We've lived our lives so out of place You touch my cheek and I do wonder how this happened That two young lovers could pack their dreams And move from the Texas Plains
Oh, I'm gonna take us back where we belong Where you can see it in the stars that the weather's comin' on One of these days
Now, our Daddy's grew cotton spittin' dust of a mornin' We met on a school bus rollin' through the Autumn fields our Daddy's raised Beneath a hot August sky our Mothers waved goodbye My Daddy tipped his hat with a tear in his eye When we left for the city where the sun rarely shines It was a hundred and two in the shade
Oh, I'm gonna take us back where we belong Where you can see it in the stars that the weather's comin' on One of these days
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Hey, do you wanna take a cab uptown? Watch the skaters go 'round and around We could talk about leavin' this town Some other day
And I suppose we look like natives here This middle aged couple with silver hair And on cold winter nights this love we share Is still a hundred and two in the shade
Oh, I'm gonna take us back where we belong Where you can see it in the stars that the weather's comin' on One of these days
Yes, I'm gonna take us back where we belong Where you can see it in the stars that the weather's comin' on One of these days
One of these days One of these days One of these days
