Someday
by Nina

Someday you'll gonna realize
One day you'll see it through my eyes
But then I won't even be there
I'll be happy somewhere
Even if i can't

I know
You don't really see my worth
You think you're the last guy on earth
Well I've got news for you
I know I'm not that strong
But it won't take long
Won't take long

Chorus
Coz someday, someone's gonna love me
The way, I want you to need me
Someday, someone's gonna take your place
One day I'll forget about you
You'll see,I won't even miss you
Someday, someday

Right now
I know you can tell
I'm down, and I'm not doin' well
But one day these tears
They will all run dry
I won't have to cry
Sweet goodbye

Chorus
Coz someday, someone's gonna love me
The way, I want you to need me
Someday, someone's gonna take your place
One day I'll forget about you
You'll see, I won't even miss you
The song is nice to listen to. Kaya lang, there's bitterness in it. Parang it's meant to give false hopes din. I mean, if you're really over and done with someone, there's no point in looking forward to a regretful someday. The bitter someday is only a wish. An illusion. A curse.
Oh well, maybe it's a woman's way to get her senses back after a romance that had gone haywire...I'm not very convinced though. For me kasi, if I were to let go of someone, I'd probably wish him well no matter how bad things have gone. Altruism? Not exactly. Acceptance. Yes, learning to accept that when we love, there's always a risk that goes with it. But at least, we loved.
We all have to live at what we have now. If it hurts today, we can never be sure if it still does in the coming days. The song has a positive effect on me. It makes me all the more convinced that life is too precious and beautiful to be keeping hatred and bitterness.
I might be feeling a little frustrated now but on a more positive "someday" note, I know things will get better. We all love and probably not all of us are loved back the way we want to, but it shouldn't end there.
As the officiating priest in the last mass I attended mentioned in his homily: The worst thing may happen but one should always see through the positive aspect of it. There is a good reason behind it somewhere. We may not see it now but in God's perfect time, we will. And we find out what is, we will be grateful it did happen.
