Someday - The Legendary Pink Dots, Edward Ka-Spel

Made myself a promise

When I was 5 years old

I’d dig my way to Australia

Cos England was too cold

But maybe 15 inches down

I cut right through a worm —

Simply was beside myself…

But I learned

Made my girl a promise

She just turned 19

I’d take her to America

I would satisfy her dreams

For months we’d plan a future

But one day I just felt tired

Never left my number…

I couldn’t even cry

Someday… Someday…

(I'll make it up to you)

Made a lot of promises

In just as many years

I’d be everything for everyone

There was nothing insincere

However much I try

Seems it always ends in tears…

Someday — I’ll make it up to you

Someday — make it up to you
