lyrics

Maybe one day I will vacation overseas
And be able to afford organic groceries
Now that I have a job I love
Maybe some day I'll be able
To make more money than I did
When I was waiting tables

I could go to school, I could work a bit
I could fall in and out of love and still not get it
We struggle on toward imperfection
Say what you want, but there is only one direction

Maybe one day I love you
With everything I've got
And not have to make excuses
For all the doors that are locked
Maybe one day I'll think of myself as a musician
And not have to make excuses
For missed notes and a lack of rhythm

I could go to school, I could work a bit
I could fall in and out of love and still not get it
'Cause first and foremost my feet and hands move
To provide the rest of my body with shelter and food

Maybe one day I will see
It is my soul I need to feed
Maybe one day I will know
What it takes to make it grow
