Lyrics
Someday (someday)
You’re gonna want me
Someday (yeah)
You’re gonna miss me
Someday
When I’m gone from you
Someday (someday)
You’ll come a crying
Your poor heart is a gonna be dying
Someday
When I’m gone from you
You’re gonna feel like a helpless child
Your poor heart will be running wild
The days a coming, honey
Can’t you see?
You’ll come running right back to me
Someday (someday)
You’ll come a crying
Your poor heart, will be dying
Someday
When I’m gone from you
You’re gonna feel like a helpless child
Your poor heart will be running wild
The days a coming, honey
Can’t you see?
You’ll come running right back to me
Someday (someday)
You’re gonna want me
Someday
You’re gonna miss me
Someday
When I’m gone from you
