Someday Coming Lyrics - Innocence Mission

My someday coming child 

I name and I re-name you 

I make up memories for you of melodies 

And friends from books I want to give you 

And horse and buggy sounds outside 

But of the someday coming world 

I don't know, I don't know 

There is so much I would keep you from 

lf I, if I could 

The heroes, selfish fools they only want their freedom 

The hero makers' greed prevails 

And we are all shock numb 

And watch the shock increasing 

And shame is something old, outgrown 

And of the someday coming, world 

I don't know, I don't know 

There is so much I would keep you from 

lf I, if I could 

Oh, maybe you won't see 

My too self-conscious tumblings 

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
