“Someday Soon” is the third song in the isolation trilogy. But it’s a song about beating the isolation and the feelings and fears that cause it. It’s a song where our hero knows the future is going to get better, with a little effort. “You’ve got to move, you’ve got to keep on trying.” Because “Someday soon we’ll have the time of our lives.” I think “Someday Soon” marked a step forward for me, both in the bounce of the tune and the optimism of the lyric.

Someday Soon

We can't be looking over shoulders
Realize we're all getting older
So take the time to count all the blessings
In your life.

Yeah, life's not just the kicks and the riches
We've all got our pains and our bitches
Easy come, easy go, going, going,
Gone.

Someday soon we'll have a lot of time to
Live our dreams - do anything we want to
Someday soon we'll have the time of our lives

The world is full of letdowns and frustrations
Of broken souls and lonely hearts aching
Keep on trying, tomorrow will bring brand new
Things.

So count the hugs that made you feel special
Count the kisses that you'll always treasure
Count them now, count them big, count them small
Count them all.

Someday soon we'll have time for each other.
We'll laze our days, spend all our nights together
Someday soon we'll have the time of our lives.

Laugh again, there you go.
It's coming your way, you know.
Smile slightly, face aglow
Don't come on too slow.
Try me, I'll try you too
I like what I see in you
Peek-a-boo, break on through
You reap what you sew.

You've got to move. You've got to keep on trying.
If you tell yourself "someday" then your lying
Someday's now, or someday never ever
Comes.

So use your time, make your days the fullest
Live your life, be beyond the coolest.
Don't sit still, don't sit still for
Anything.
