some day
Embracing Tomorrow: Atlas in Motion's Heartfelt Journey
Lyrics
I'm holding on
I am holding on.
To less than nothing
Clutching onto something insignificant or barely existent.
Can't believe I fought
Expressing disbelief after a three-year struggle to see it collapse.
Three years just to watch it fall apart
Observing the disintegration of efforts and plans.
I watched it crumble at my feet
Witnessing the breakdown at one's feet.
Now I've got time on my hands
Having free time now.
I'm missing you to death
Longing for someone intensely.
Camping out in my head
Mentally preoccupied, replaying memories.
Reliving every moment
Reliving every moment spent together.
Of your skin and your hands
Reflecting on the tactile memories of the person's skin and hands.
Your head upon my chest
Recalling the comforting image of the person's head on the chest.
I hope I get over it
Hoping to overcome the emotional turmoil.
Some day, some day
Anticipating a future point in time for resolution.
Oooh
Expressing emotions through vocalizations (Oooh).
Oooh
-Oooh
-Oooh
-Oooh
-Oooh
-I'm still a wreck
Describing a continued state of emotional distress.
I'm scared I'll never love again
Fearing the inability to love again.
After your kiss
Reflecting on the lingering impact of a past kiss.
What felt so right can't be followed by nothingness
Emphasizing the irreplaceability of the past connection.
You're showing up in my dreams again
Experiencing the person's presence in dreams.
And I can't accept second best
Rejecting anything less than the best.
So I've got time on my hands
Having surplus time on hand.
Still missing you to death
Continuing to miss the person profoundly.
Scratching all of my plans
Abandoning plans due to emotional upheaval.
For the life I thought we'd have
Reflecting on the shattered future envisioned.
And, god, I'm missing my friend
Lamenting the loss of a friendship.
Knowing that we'll never ever have
Accepting the impossibility of a future together.
Some day, some day
Anticipating a distant resolution at some point.
Oooh
Expressing emotions through vocalizations (Oooh).
Oooh
-Oooh
-Oooh
-Oooh
-Oooh
-Oh, so take me out dancing
Desiring to go out dancing openly.
Out in the open
Seeking openness and honesty in the relationship.
Give me your hand
Requesting a connection by offering a hand.
Swear I'll never forget this
Promising not to forget the moment.
Given a chance, swear
Pledging a better love if given another chance.
I'd love you better
A firm commitment to love better.
I'll love you better!
Reaffirmation of the commitment.
Now I've got time on my hands
Having spare time and trying to make the best of it.
And trying to make the best of it
Maintaining focus on the present moment.
I'm keeping my head
Keeping composure and clarity.
Focused on the present
Remaining present-focused in thoughts.
Every cell in my skin
Expressing a deep desire to be with the person.
Wants to be with him
Feeling the longing in every cell of the skin.
But I can't have some day
Understanding the impossibility of a future together.
Some day
Reiterating the anticipation of a resolution someday.
Oooh (Take me out dancing)
Expressing emotions through vocalizations (Oooh).
Oooh (Some day, somewhere, somehow)
-Oooh (Out in the open)
-(Some day, some day)
-Oooh (Give me a dance, and)
-Oooh (Some day, some day)
-Oooh (Some day)
A repetition of the hope for resolution in the future.
