One of These Days - Matthew E. White

I know you can't help that your smile's the brightest

It's hard to look away baby

It's hard to look away

Your eyes make peace like a river

And your eyes make love like an ocean

I can never look away

Oh baby I can never look away

You give me joy like a fountain deep down in my soul

You give me joy like a fountain deep down in my soul

Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm

One of these days one of these days one of these days

You don't think that you'll ever die

Baby looking like you do

We all pass away

Everyone finds a way

And I don't want to live a minute longer than you

So let's meet the lord together

Like everything else we do

Oh child like everything else we do

You give me joy like a fountain deep down in my soul

You give me joy like a fountain deep down in my soul

And I want to lay next to you when our glory fades

And I want to lay next to you I'll never turn away

And I want to tell you you're the sweetest thing

That the lord has ever made

One of these days one of these days one of these days

They say youth is a vision

That we can't see till we're old

But you're the sweetest revelation

That these weary eyes will ever hold ever hold

And I want to lay next to you when our glory fades

And I want to lay next to you I'll never turn away

And I want to tell you you're the sweetest thing

That the lord has ever made

One of these days one of these days one of these days

Reap and sow the things you won't let go

Four o'clock flowers bloom in the morning

They fold in the afternoon

Yeah they fold in the afternoon

Why aren't you still standing on the sidewalk by my stairs

Seems like everyone's moving away

Oh child seems like everyone's moving away

There's so much beauty and it fades so soon

There's so much beauty and it fades so soon

I want to lay next to you when our glory fades

I want to lay next to you I'll never turn away

I want to tell you you're the sweetest thing

That the lord has ever made

One of these days one of these days one of these days

One of these days one of these days one of these days
