Words & Music by Kira Small & Christine Albert (Sutters Gold Music BMI / Gerry Bruce Music ASCAP)

Christine Albert, in addition to being a brilliant songstress and long-trusted friend, has always been one of the wise women I want to be when I grow up. Writing with her was such a joy. This was the only time we did, but we keep swearing we'll do it again someday....heh...which leads perfectly (albeit accidentally) to where this song idea came from:

Christine and I were attending a seminar together and the leader said "We're all living in this place called 'Someday I'll'...someday I'll do this, someday I'll do that...someday I'll be happy...what the heck are we waiting for??" It was all Christine and I could do not to high-five over our obvious new song subject.

lyrics

I live on a place called Someday Isle all by myself
I’ve got a book of my hopes and dreams gathering dust on a shelf
When I look out my window the horizon calls to me
From far across the sea

Chorus:
Someday I’ll cross over
Someday I’ll be free
To leave the fear that holds me here
And I’ll sail away
To a place without these walls I’ve built
Keeping me in exile
Living here on Someday Isle

Once upon a time I lived just for today
Still blessed with an innocence that hadn’t gone astray
Until the day my faithful heart was broken and betrayed
I learned to be afraid

Chorus

Someday is a day away and always out of reach
But that’s the day I’ll paint my masterpiece

Chorus
