lyrics version 1
Some day soon
lyrics version 2
Well I'm so glad that you finally faced your death
And you found the things you'd always hoped were true
There were times when I would've saved my breath
But something kept me praying for you
And it's hard to know why it took so long
And it's easy to see where the road went wrong
And it's bad for life to be torn in half
Keep your feet upon the path
Some day soon if we pray for queen Jane
She might find the strength to do what she must do
She might lay down the visions and pick up her cross
And follow where he's leading her to
It's hard to die and lay the old life down
You don't get no help from the jugglers and the clowns
They melt a brass serpent and they build a golden calf
And their feet stray from this path
All our friends who are anchored to their past
Need something that we cannot give
And we like them before we heard his voice
Existed but did not live
We who are busy dying are busy being born
And glimpse the light of heaven through where the veil is torn
Our faith shall find completion, our soul escape his wrath
If our feet stay on the path
Evil sits like a dark cloud beside the sun
But the light shall destroy the darkness with its power
And we who live in the shadow of this world
Shall escape by that light in the final hour
When I first saw you you were oh so alone
I felt your pain when I heard you talk
You were lost like some rolling stone
Now your hanging onto the solid rock
And there you stand, a brother in the son
Facing your future and the race that must be run
When this life is over we shall rest at last
If our feet stay on the path
On the path
And you found the things you'd always hoped were true
There were times when I would've saved my breath
But something kept me praying for you
And it's hard to know why it took so long
And it's easy to see where the road went wrong
And it's bad for life to be torn in half
Keep your feet upon the path
Some day soon if we pray for queen Jane
She might find the strength to do what she must do
She might lay down the visions and pick up her cross
And follow where he's leading her to
It's hard to die and lay the old life down
You don't get no help from the jugglers and the clowns
They melt a brass serpent and they build a golden calf
And their feet stray from this path
All our friends who are anchored to their past
Need something that we cannot give
And we like them before we heard his voice
Existed but did not live
We who are busy dying are busy being born
And glimpse the light of heaven through where the veil is torn
Our faith shall find completion, our soul escape his wrath
If our feet stay on the path
Evil sits like a dark cloud beside the sun
But the light shall destroy the darkness with its power
And we who live in the shadow of this world
Shall escape by that light in the final hour
When I first saw you you were oh so alone
I felt your pain when I heard you talk
You were lost like some rolling stone
Now your hanging onto the solid rock
And there you stand, a brother in the son
Facing your future and the race that must be run
When this life is over we shall rest at last
If our feet stay on the path
On the path
