about

The lone cover song on the album, written by our good friend, and one of the finest living songwriters, Nathan Moore. It features Sarah on guitar, who wrote and played one of the most angular riffs in electric guitar history. Legend has it, Andrew's one and only drum take lasted an hour and a half, with him continuing to play long after the song was over and the engineer went to bed. This is the only song by The Barr Brothers where Brad doesn't play guitar. - Brad Barr

lyrics

---Lyrics---

I wish I knew the magic words
To dry up all our tears
I wish I had a magic wand
To make our troubles disappear
But I don't know no magic words
And I don't have a magic wand
But here's my empty hand, my dear
Hold on, hold on, hold on

When I woke up this morning
The dream was on my mind
Beside me was a cigarette
Floating in a glass of wine
So I picked up my guitar
Started strumming out of time
Couldn't find a reason
I could only find a rhyme

Maybe someday, maybe someday
Maybe someday, maybe someday soon
I won't be this far away
I won't be the man in the moon
I know just what you would say
If you heard me sing this tune
Singing someday, maybe someday
Singing someday, maybe someday soon
Singing someday, maybe someday soon
Someday maybe someday soon
