Someday the birds won't sing

They'll all scatter from the rising tide below

And someday the bells won't ring

They'll just echo back the secrets that they know

But not today

And not tomorrow

Not while the symphony is roaming through my blood

And who's to say

We shouldn't follow

Towards some light up in the sky that no one sees

And not for gold

And not for envy

Not for the thought that we could live forever more

But for the truth

For the moment

To paint the world with all the colours of our souls

Oh, someday

The flags won't fly

They'll all be buried in the ground where they belong

Someday

Well, the guns won't ring

We'll all wonder where the world went wrong

Someday

They say

That a man can't change

Before he's turned to naught but pictures on a page

And maybe when our time is through

The silence in the dark comes calling you

But not today

And not tomorrow

Not while the symphony is roaming through my blood

And who's to say

We shouldn't follow

Towards some light up in the sky that no one sees

And not for gold

And not for envy

Not for the thought that we could live forever more

But for the truth

For the moment

To paint the world with all the colours of our souls

Oh, someday

The flags won't fly

They'll all be buried in the ground where they belong

Someday

Well, the guns won't ring

We'll all wonder where the world went wrong

Someday

Someday
