Daddy came home
With tears in his eyes
Never seen that side of him before
I was nine years old
Covering my brother's ears
Hoping that he wouldn't hear
"Mama don't go, don't go"
Feeling all alone, but they told me
Don't wear that weight on your shoulders
People fall out of love, but you just gotta trust
That you get it when you're older
Oh, maybe one of these days
I'll finally understand
How every broken piece
Fits in a bigger plan
I wanna live like I'm dying
Wanna laugh 'til I'm crying
But my heart, it still breaks
I hope it falls into place
Yeah, maybe one of these days
We were young and in love
Sleeping in the yard
Painting pictures with the stars
And that was enough, hmm
'Til it wasn't enough
We were tearing at the seams
Hundred miles in between
And the damage was done, oh
He said, "I hope you find somebody
And you think that he's the one
He's gonna be so damn lucky"
But I couldn't help but wishing
That I knew just what was missing
Why I couldn't make you happy
Oh, maybe one of these days
I'll finally understand
How every broken piece
Fits in a bigger plan
I wanna live like I'm dying
Wanna laugh 'til I'm crying
But my heart, it still breaks
I hope it falls into place
Yeah, maybe one of these days
♪
Oh, one of these days, hmm
Got a new place
Hanging with a new crowd
While I figure things out
Got my bills to pay
So I keep moving forward down this one way street
Try to tell myself that
Everything is meant to be, yeah
Oh, maybe one of these days
I'll finally understand
How every broken piece (oh)
Fits in a bigger plan
I wanna live like I'm dying
Wanna laugh 'til I'm crying
But my heart, it still breaks
I hope it falls into place (oh)
Yeah, maybe one of these days
It's gonna fall into place
Yeah, maybe one of these days
