One of These Days

One of These Days

I've been hoping to see your silhouette in the doorway
even though I know you're miles away
just to run like a fool into your waiting arms
couldn't you surprise me one of these days?

one of these days, you might surprise me

make my heart stop! just for a while

one of these days, when I'm comin' home so tired

could you make my heart leap at the sight of your smile?

I've been hoping to see your truck in my driveway
even though I know there isn't a chance
but there's always that hope, that one in a million
miracles can happen in the name of romance

one of these days...

maybe you got fired or they sent you home early
maybe the work back home just got done
or maybe you found yourself feelin' lonely
and you just had to see me, you son-of-a-gun

one of these days...

but there's always more work and I know you won't get fired
and if you get lonely, you'll just get by
and life is much like a movie anyway
still there's that hope in this old heart of mine,

(that) one of these days...
