Let's rewrite an ending that fits
Why weren't we able
And try an' turn the tables?
I wish you'd unclench your fists
I know you're wondering when
Gonna make it alright but not right now
Instead of a Hollywood horror
Just as long as you know that someday I will
Let's rewrite an ending that fits
Someday, somehow
But don't think it's too late
Just as long as you know that someday I will
Someday, somehow
Now the story's played out like this
Nothin's wrong
Just as long as you know that someday I will
Gonna make it alright but not right now
(You're the only one who knows that)
We could end up saying
I know you're wondering when
Well I'd hoped that since we're here anyway
Gonna make it alright but not right now
Nothin's wrong
(You're the only one who knows that)
Things we've always needed to say
Just like a paperback novel
Someday, somehow
(You're the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
Lately there's been too much of this
I know you're wondering when
To see the signs that we missed
Now the story's played out like this
I know you're wondering when
Just like a paperback novel
Nothin's wrong
And try an' turn the tables?
And unpack your suitcase
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Gonna make it alright but not right now
(You're the only one who knows that)
Gonna make it alright but not right now
How the hell'd we wind up like this?
I know you're wondering when
Someday, somehow
Gonna make it alright but not right now
Someday, somehow
To see the signs that we missed
(You're the only one who knows that)
I know you're wondering when
So we could end up stringing
Instead of a Hollywood horror
