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'll 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 till I'm crying
But my heart it still breaks
I hope it falls into place
Ya, maybe one of these days

We were young and in love
Sleeping in the yard
Painting pictures with the stars
And that was enough

Till it wasn't enough
We were tearing at the seams
Hundred miles in between
And the damage was done

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 till I'm crying
But my heart it still breaks
I hope it falls into place
Ya, maybe one of these days
Oh, one of these days

Got a new place
Hanging with a new crowd
While I figure things out
Got some bills to pay

So I keep moving forward down this one way street
Try to tell myself that everything is meant to be

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 till I'm crying
But my heart it still breaks
I hope it falls into place
Ya, maybe one of these days

It's gonna fall into place
Ya, maybe one of these days
