Decided to switch it around from AABAB to a more standard VVCBC format... May main issue is that I like pre-chorus but it will only occur once... It won't fit after the bridge... doesn't seem right to have the pre after verse one if there's no chorus... Any advice?

Some Day
© 2011 Greg Swartzentruber

I always said someday
I’d tie up loose ends
Finish learning Spanish
Look up long lost friends
Track down those I angered
Try to make amends
Someday buy a new car
Think I’d like a Benz

We all have these dreams
Don’t matter who you are
Maybe to catch a plane
Somewhere way too far
Someday paint a picture
Learn to play guitar
Be the guy who buys a round
For the whole dang bar

Something always happens
Life gets in the way
That’s gonna end right now
It’s gonna start today

This is gonna be some day
Brother that’s for sure
The humdrum path I follow
Is taking a detour
Gonna taste the fruits of joy
Real living can provide
Today is gonna be some day
I can feel it deep inside

Won’t do it all in one day
But don’t let that sorrow you
Now that you’ve gotten started
Have some day tomorrow too

This is gonna be some day
Brother that’s for sure
The humdrum paths we follow
Are taking a detour
Gonna taste the fruits of joy
Real living can provide
Today is gonna be some day
Can’t you feel it deep inside

Today is gonna be some day
Can’t you feel it deep inside

Some Day
© 2011 Greg Swartzentruber

I always thought that someday
I’d tie up the loose ends
Finish learning Spanish
Reconnect with long lost friends
Track down those I angered
And try to make amends
Someday buy a brand new car
I think I’d like a Benz
But something always happens
Life gets in the way
But that is gonna end right now
This is gonna be some day!

Someday I’ll paint my bedroom
And learn to play guitar
Someday I’d like to buy a round
For everybody in the bar
Maybe catch the next plane
To some place way too far
We’ve all had these dreams
Doesn’t matter who you are
But something always happens
Life gets in the way
But that is gonna end right now
This is gonna be some day!

This is gonna be some day
Brother that’s for sure
The humdrum path I follow
Is taking a detour
Gonna taste the fruits of joy
That living can provide
And this is gonna be some day
I just have to decide

I’m going to my neighbor’s
To return the things I’ve borrowed
Think I’ll try some foods I hate
Maybe even avocado
Won’t get to ‘em all today
But that’s no cause for sorrow
When I’ve done what I can today
Gonna have some day tomorrow
And nothing’s gonna happen
Life won’t get in the way
Cos this has gotta start right now
This is gonna be some day!

This is gonna be some day
Brother that’s for sure
The humdrum path I follow
Is taking a detour
Gonna taste the fruits of joy
That living can provide
Today is gonna be some day
I just have to decide
