Some of These Days
Longing Echoes: Some of These Days' Melancholic Embrace
Lyrics
Some of these days you'll miss me, honey
Anticipation of being missed in the future.
Some of these days you're gonna be so lonely
Expectation that loneliness will be experienced at some point.
You'll miss my huggin', you'll miss my kissin'
Highlighting the absence of physical affection.
You'll be so sorry, baby, when I'm away
Warning of regret and sorrow during the speaker's absence.
Now you'll gonna be lonely just for me only
Emphasizing exclusivity, suggesting the listener will long for the speaker.
'Cause you know, honey, that you had your way
Referring to a past scenario where the listener had control or influence.
And when you leave me, you know it will grieve me
Expressing sadness and emotional pain upon departure.
You're gonna miss your daddy, some of these days
Indicating the listener will miss the speaker in the future.
Some of these days you'll miss me, honey
Reiteration of the theme of being missed in the future.
Some of these days you're gonna be so lonely
Reiteration of the anticipation of loneliness to come.
You'll miss my huggin', you're gonna miss my kissin'
Re-emphasis on the absence of physical affection and intimacy.
You'll be so sorry, baby, when I'm away
Repetition of the warning about future regret and sorrow.
Now you'll gonna be lonely just your one and only
Emphasizing the listener's exclusivity, being the only one missed.
'Cause you know, honey, that you had your way
Recalling a situation where the listener had control or dominance.
And when you leave it, baby, you'll always be grieving
Stressing the enduring grief upon departure, suggesting a lasting impact.
You're gonna miss me, some of these days
Reiteration of the idea that the listener will be missed in the future.
You're gonna miss your daddy, some of these days
Emphasizing the personal connection by using the term 'daddy.'
