One of These Days
Overcoming Heartache: LeAnn Rimes' Journey to Healing
Lyrics
Wish someone would tell me when
Expressing a desire for clarity about when thoughts of the person will no longer be present.
I won't think of you again.
Hope for the ability to move on and stop thinking about the person.
I'll get past the emptiness and
Acknowledging the process of overcoming emptiness and allowing happiness to return.
Let a little happiness back in.
Opening up to the possibility of experiencing joy again.
Pretending I don't care,
Not showing concern, feigning indifference, which only provides partial relief.
Leaves me half way there.
Realizing that pretending not to care only brings partial emotional relief.
One of these, one of these days
Anticipating a future moment when complete emotional recovery will occur.
I'll be completely over you.
Expressing the expectation of being fully over the person at some point.
Heaven knows how long it will take.
Recognizing uncertainty about the duration of the healing process.
And one of these, one of these days
Reiterating the hope for eventual emotional closure and moving on.
I'll find somebody who'll love your memories away
Envisioning finding someone who can replace the memories of the past love.
One of these days
Reaffirming the belief that recovery will come 'one of these days.'
One of these days
Repeated expression of anticipation for a future without emotional burden.
Some how, some way
Desire for resolution, indicating a longing for closure and relief.
Ever since you've been gone,
Reflecting on the persistent feeling of time dragging since the person's departure.
Time has a way of dragging on and on.
Highlighting the prolonged and difficult passage of time without the person.
Friends drive by for company,
Noting the presence of friends trying to provide companionship.
But I'm not much company for long.
Acknowledging personal difficulty in being good company for an extended period.
Oh I'll get past what was,
Commitment to moving past the memories of the past relationship.
If I live long enough
Linking the ability to overcome the past with a sufficient duration of life.
One of these, one of these days
Reiteration of the expectation of eventual emotional recovery.
I'll be completely over you.
Expressing the desire to be entirely free from lingering emotions.
Heaven knows how long it will take.
Emphasizing uncertainty about the time required for complete healing.
And one of these, one of these days
Reaffirming the hope for finding someone to replace the memories of the past love.
I'll find somebody who'll love your memories away (some way)
Stating the intention to find someone who can erase the memories in some way.
One of these days
Repeating the anticipation of a future day when emotional healing will occur.
Some how, some way
Expressing the belief that resolution will come in some way.
One of these, one of these days
Reiteration of the expectation of eventual emotional recovery.
I'll be completely over you.
Expressing the desire to be entirely free from lingering emotions.
Heaven knows how long it will take.
Emphasizing uncertainty about the time required for complete healing.
And one of these, one of these days
Reaffirming the hope for finding someone to replace the memories of the past love.
I'll find somebody who'll love your memories away
Stating the intention to find someone who can erase the memories.
One of these days
Reaffirming the belief in a future day of emotional liberation.
One of these days (one of these days)
Repeating the anticipation of a future day when emotional healing will occur.
One of these days (some how, some way)
Reiteration of the belief that resolution will come in some way.
One of these days (one of these days)
Reaffirming the expectation of a future day when emotional burdens will be lifted.
