One of These Days

How soon, how soon 

We forget 

How long, how long 

To be tied 

Up in knots 

To be becoming 

What we are not 

One of these days

It’s gonna wash away 

One of these days 

We’re gonna break away 

One of these days 

It’s gonna fall away 

One of these days 

How close, how close

How close, how close 

We are to the flame 

That burns within us 

How come, how come, 

We travel so far, 

Just to end up 

Where we began 

One of these days

It’s gonna wash away 

One of these days 

We’re gonna break away 

One of these days 

It’s gonna fall away 

One of these days 

And though I know the joy is in the journey 

I long for us to let go of the things we’ve been carrying 

Around 

One of these days

It’s gonna wash away 

One of these days 

We’re gonna break away 

One of these days 

It’s gonna fall away 

One of these days
