One Of These Days

Daddy came home
 With tears in his eyes
 Never seen that side of him before
 I was nine years old
 Covering my brother's ears
 Hoping that he wouldn't hear
 "Mama don't go, don't go"
 Feeling all alone, but they told me
 Don't wear that weight on your shoulders
 People fall out of love, but you just gotta trust
 That you get it when you're older
 Oh, maybe one of these days
 I'll finally understand
 How every broken piece
 Fits in a bigger plan
 I wanna live like I'm dying
 Wanna laugh 'til I'm crying
 But my heart, it still breaks
 I hope it falls into place
 Yeah, maybe one of these days
 We were young and in love
 Sleeping in the yard
 Painting pictures with the stars
 And that was enough, hmm
 'Til it wasn't enough
 We were tearing at the seams
 Hundred miles in between
 And the damage was done, oh
 He said, "I hope you find somebody
 And you think that he's the one
 He's gonna be so damn lucky"
 But I couldn't help but wishing
 That I knew just what was missing
 Why I couldn't make you happy
 Oh, maybe one of these days
 I'll finally understand
 How every broken piece
 Fits in a bigger plan
 I wanna live like I'm dying
 Wanna laugh 'til I'm crying
 But my heart, it still breaks
 I hope it falls into place
 Yeah, maybe one of these days
 ♪
 Oh, one of these days, hmm
 Got a new place
 Hanging with a new crowd
 While I figure things out
 Got my bills to pay
 So I keep moving forward down this one way street
 Try to tell myself that
 Everything is meant to be, yeah
 Oh, maybe one of these days
 I'll finally understand
 How every broken piece (oh)
 Fits in a bigger plan
 I wanna live like I'm dying
 Wanna laugh 'til I'm crying
 But my heart, it still breaks
 I hope it falls into place (oh)
 Yeah, maybe one of these days
 It's gonna fall into place
 Yeah, maybe one of these days
