One Of These Days (Peter Kearns)

This fame and fortune
And attention you crave so much
Has clearly become a drug
And though I applaude you
I'm sorry but I think you'll find
I have to be cruel to be kind
-------------------------------------------
One of these days
When the message hits home
And the sky's not so grey
And the clouds go away
And the hammer is starting to fall

One of these days
It'll dawn on you
And you'll see what you missed
And who you could've kissed
You will learn
One of these days
-------------------------------------------
The demands and pressure
And the circle in which you move
Have caused such a change in you
But you sacrificed everything
For this life that you thought you'd want
And now the gloss is wearing off
Admit it
-------------------------------------------
One of these days
When the message hits home
And the sky's not so grey
And the clouds roll away
And the hammer is starting to fall

One of these days
You'll wake up to yourself
And you'll see what you missed
And who you could've kissed
You will learn
One of these days
---------------------------------------------
Believe me
The road will get dark
The more time passes
Out in the world
Seeing all through rose-coloured glasses
Pretending you're happy again
---------------------------------------------
One of these days
When the message hits home
And the sky's not so grey
And the clouds roll away
The penny will finally fall

One of these days
What I say will sink in
And you'll see what you missed
And who you could've kissed
You will learn
One of these days
