Pete McDonald: Music

Some day soon, we’ll slide on by
Without a glance, without a sigh
Some day soon, you won’t be around
In my mind or in this town

Some day soon there won’t be an answer.
Some day soon you’ll walk on by.
Some day soon I’ll be alone to sing my lonesome lullaby.

We made our way, through those canyon lands
In the fading light, through the dry red sand
A fitting scene, as the road bends
A lifeless world, a cruel and bitter end

But, someday soon could be tomorrow
Some day soon might be today
Some day soon please come quickly
So she can’t stand in my way


I made my way through that misty haze
Thinking back on those final days
We were together oh but so alone
We were bound to be on our own.

And someday soon could be tomorrow
Some day soon might be today
Some day soon please come quickly
So she can’t stand in my way

And someday soon there won’t be an answer
Some day soon I’ll walk on by
Some day soon I’ll be alone
To sing my lonesome lullaby.
