Someday Coming
The Innocence Mission
From Their 1991 Album "Umbrella"
No Capo
Intro
Verse 1
My Someday Coming Child
I Name And I Re-Name You
I Make Up Memories For You
Of Melodies And Friends
From Books I Wanted To Give You
And Horse And Buggy Sounds Outside
Chorus
But Of The Someday Coming World
I Don't Know, I Don't Know
There Is So Much I Would Keep You From
If I, If I Could
Verse 2
The Heroes, Selfish Fools
They Only Want Their Freedom
The Hero-Maker's Greed Prevails
And We Are All Shock Numb
And Watch The Shock Increasing
And Shame Is Something Old, Outgrown
Chorus
But Of The Someday Coming World
I Don't Know, I Don't Know
There Is So Much I Would Keep You From
If I, If I Could
Oh, Maybe You Won't See
My Too Self-Conscious Stumblings
My Running From The Phone
My Fears
Because I Can Be Very Strong
Say I Can, Say I Can
There Is So Much To Believe In
There Are Angel Words To Teach You
There Is Hope, My Daydream Child
