First thing I remember was asking papa, "Why?"
For there were many things I didn't kno
And Daddy always smiled, took me by the hand
Saying, "Someday you'll understand"
Saying, "Someday you'll understand"
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and every mother's son
You better learn it fast, you better learn it young
'Cause, someday (someday) never comes
No, no, someday (someday) never comes
Well, time and tears went by and I collected dust
For there were many things I didn't know
When Daddy went away, he said, "Try to be a man
And, someday you'll understand"
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and every mother's son
You better learn it fast, you better learn it young
'Cause, someday (someday) you'll understand
Oh, someday (someday) you'll understand
And then, one day in April, I wasn't even there
For there were many things I didn't know
A son was born to me, Mama held his hand
Saying, "Someday you'll understand"
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and every mother's son
You better learn it fast, you better learn it young
'Cause, someday (someday) never comes (never comes)
No, no, someday (someday) never comes
Think it was September, the year I went away
For there were many things I didn't know
And I still see him standing, trying to be a man
Saying, "Someday you'll understand"
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and every mother's son
You better learn it fast, you better learn it young
'Cause, someday (someday) never comes (never comes)
No, no, someday (someday) never comes (never comes)
Someday (someday) never comes (never comes)
Oh, someday never comes
