How the hell did we wind up like this?
Why weren't we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try and turn the tables?
I wish you'd unclench your fists
And unpack your suitcase
Lately there's been too much of this
But don't think it's too late
Nothing's wrong
Just as long as you know that someday I will
Someday, somehow
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
Well I'd hope that since we're here anyway
That we could end up saying
Things we've always needed to say
So we could end up staying
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Let's rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a Hollywood horror
Nothing's wrong
Just as long as you know that someday I will
Someday, somehow
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
How the hell did we wind up like this?
Why weren't we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try and turn the tables?
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Let's rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a Hollywood horror
Nothing's wrong
Just as long as you know that someday I will
Someday, somehow
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
I know you're wondering when
About This Song
"Someday" is a heartfelt rock ballad about relationship struggles and the hope for reconciliation, with Chad Kroeger pleading for patience as he works to repair a damaged partnership. The lyrics explore themes of regret, missed warning signs, and the emotional distance that has grown between two people, while expressing a desperate desire to make things right despite current circumstances. Musically, the song features Nickelback's signature post-grunge sound with melodic verses building to an anthemic, emotionally charged chorus that emphasizes the central promise of eventual healing. The track resonates with listeners who have experienced relationship difficulties, offering both acknowledgment of present pain and genuine hope for future redemption. Its blend of vulnerability and determination, combined with accessible rock production, made it a radio staple that showcased the band's ability to balance heavy guitar work with deeply personal, relatable storytelling.
