Lyrics Some Sweet Day - Dirk Powell
When
I
was
sixteen,
so
eager
and
green
I
searched
for
the
belle
of
the
ball
She
never
appeared,
so
often
I
feared
I
might
be
alone
after
all
Night
after
night
I
hid
from
the
light
Until
you
appeared
at
my
side
You
held
out
your
hand,
told
of
a
land
Where
you
said
I′d
have
nothing
to
hide
Some
old
day
Some
sweet
day
I'm
gonna
bid
you
goodbye
Some
old
day
Some
sweet
day
I′m
gonna
take
wings
and
fly
I'm
gonna
take
wings
and
fly
How
your
sweet
lips
would
sing,
saying
I
was
a
king
Whose
crown
had
been
stolen
away
We
get
what
was
mine,
just
a
little
more
time
A
little
more
out
of
my
day
Round
after
round
I
followed
you
down
But
I
never
could
find
the
way
Your
smile
disguised,
a
hole
in
your
eyes
Where
the
door
to
your
heart
should
have
been
Some
old
day
Some
sweet
day
I'm
gonna
bid
you
goodbye
Some
old
day
Some
sweet
day
I′m
gonna
take
wings
and
fly
I′m
gonna
take
wings
and
fly
When
I
look
in
the
rain,
you're
standing
so
near
Your
breath
turns,
my
colour
to
twine
But
when
I
turn
around,
there′s
just
empty
ground
No-one's
reflection
but
mine
But
some
sweet
day,
before
my
life
fades
away
A
hand
will
be
offered
to
me
Not
a
stiff
hand
I
turn
calloused
nor
burned
But
gentle,
lovely
and
free
Some
old
day
Some
sweet
day
I′m
gonna
bid
you
goodbye
Some
old
day
Some
sweet
day
I'm
gonna
take
wings
and
fly
