Sooner Or Later
Pop-rock tale about a character in a novel that I fancied. Recorded in 2009 on a Boss MBR.
Sooner or Later - A A J Russe
Theres a crazy girl
Looks about my age
Hiding out on the second page
Waiting for the story to unfold
I know they kill her off in chapter two
But I like her
What can you do?
I’m looking for a way to get her out
If you dream that much, dream all day
Sooner or later, your dream can’t run away
Surely sooner or later, your dream can’t run away
She wears a cocktail dress, with a target on
She washed it twice, thinks the stain is gone
Still hoping for her moment in the light
I can see the mark where they stick it in
For me that page is wearing thin
I’m looking for a way to get her out
If you dream so much, dream all day
Sooner or later, your dream can’t run away
Surely sooner or later, your dream can’t run away
Chapter two
Like yesterday
Goes round and round
Cant keep away
Hoping that the story’s not the same
If I stood here
To catch her there
Do you think she’d keep her underwear?
Do you think we’d find a way to get her out?
Dream that much - dream all day
Dream so much - scheme all day
Cry out loud - cry all day
Dream and scheme your life away
If you dream so much, dream all day
Sooner or later, your dream can’t run away
If you cry out loud, attract a crowd
Sooner or later, your dream can’t run away
Sooner or later, your dream can’t run away
Sooner or later, your dream can’t run away
Sooner or later, your dream can’t run away
Sooner or later
Sooner or later
Sooner or later…
