One Of  These Days                    Larry Dunn ©07

Verse

The voice I hear on the telephone is the sound of a life changing forever

I search in vain, I can’t find the words to say to make it any better

It’s a deceptive stretch of road, time marches on

So many blessings left uncounted in a single breath are gone

Dark clouds on the horizon, thunder rollin’ over head

I’d hoped for a change of weather, but it looks like rain instead

Chorus

One of these days will bring good news

When the message that’s delivered isn’t wrapped in blues

One of these days, a time will come, one of these days

Verse

Sister Faith’s been waiting…

Holding out against the odds her ship will finally come in

Got the patience of a saint but even that is wearin’ thin

It’s rumored better days are right around the bend

I hope it’s not more high expectations twistin’ in the wind again

Another storm is comin’ and the rain keeps pourin’ down

Been nothin’ but bad weather, bad weather all around

Chorus

One of these days the sun will rise in style

Fair wind’s gonna blow, fortune’s gonna smile

One of these days, a time will come one of these days

Solo

Bridge

I’ve lived on either side of the great divide, moved from town to town

And trouble’s there no matter where I set my suitcase down

First Chorus

Second Chorus
