One Of These Days

(アルバム： The Loving Kind - 2009)

We walk along the Hudson when it snows here in Manhattan
Seems we've lived our lives so out of place
You touch my cheek and I do wonder how this happened
That two young lovers could pack their dreams and move from the Texas Plains

Oh, I'm gonna take us back where we belong
Where you can see it in the stars that the weather's coming on
One of these days

Now, our daddies grew cotton, spitting dust of a morning
We met on a school bus rolling through the autumn fields our daddies raised
Beneath a hot August sky our mothers waved goodbye
My daddy tipped his hat with a tear in his eye
When we left for the city, where the sun rarely shines
It was a 'hunnerd' an' two in the shade

Oh, I'm gonna take us back where we belong
Where you can see it in the stars that the weather's coming on
One of these days

Hey, do you wanta take a cab uptown, watch the skaters go
'Round and 'round?
We could talk about leaving this town some other day
And I suppose we look like natives here, this middle-aged couple with silver hair
And on cold winter nights this love we share
Is still a 'hunnerd' and two in the shade
