All in a Day
Someday I might see a new bird fly across the sky
Someday I might see a cluster of new stars fall by
Someday I might walk tall in clean new grass
Someday I might not mind the minutes that pass
Today is not that day (sigh-alas)
One day I saw a dust sprite on the road
One day I saw a little h*rny toad
One day I saw a far distant race
One day I saw emotions on your face
Today is not that day (load-for grace)
When someday turns to one day I might love again
When someday turns to one day I might say if then
When someday turns to one day I might see the sun on me
When someday turns to one day I might actually be free
Today can be that day (when-I see)
Someday-One day-Today it's all the same
Just another name-claim to fame
Someday-One day-Today it's round about
Just another shout-out no doubt
Today can be that day (game-reroute)
Today
