Sooner Or Later Lyrics
Lipstick, pretty face
And maybe you'll notice something
Different about me, different about me
Yeah you talk, talk all you want
You pour your heart out
But you never do see, you never do see me
Oh, can't wait around forever for you
Sooner or later, you're gonna come around
And you'll be sorry when you figure out
That I was always everything that you needed
Sooner or later, you're gonna wish you had me
Yeah you're gonna wish you had me
Well she don't do nothing for you
But mess you up, yeah she messes you up
I'm your shoulder, I'm your quick drive over
Trying to fix your stuff, well I give up
Oh, you've never seen me standing right in front of you
Sooner or later, you're gonna come around
And you'll be sorry when you figure out
That I was always everything that you needed
Sooner or later, you're gonna wish you had me
Yeah you're gonna wish you had me
Oh you're gonna wish me back so bad, so bad
Oh but it's a little too late for that
Lipstick, pretty face
And maybe you'll notice something
Different about me, different about me
Sooner or later, you're gonna come around
And you'll be sorry when you figure out
That I was always everything that you needed
Sooner or later, you're gonna wish you had me
Yeah you're gonna wish you had me
And maybe you'll notice something
Different about me, different about me
Yeah you talk, talk all you want
You pour your heart out
But you never do see, you never do see me
And you'll be sorry when you figure out
That I was always everything that you needed
Sooner or later, you're gonna wish you had me
Yeah you're gonna wish you had me
But mess you up, yeah she messes you up
I'm your shoulder, I'm your quick drive over
Trying to fix your stuff, well I give up
And you'll be sorry when you figure out
That I was always everything that you needed
Sooner or later, you're gonna wish you had me
Yeah you're gonna wish you had me
Oh but it's a little too late for that
And maybe you'll notice something
Different about me, different about me
And you'll be sorry when you figure out
That I was always everything that you needed
Sooner or later, you're gonna wish you had me
Yeah you're gonna wish you had me

wow. is it just me or does this song sound a bit country??? i <3 this song with the country bit.
Anyway, I think this song is sorta easy to find the meaning of (this is not a smack for those who havent, BTW). This girl is in love with her guy friend that (in my interpretation) only sees her in jeans or not dressed up, at least. That's why she says, "Lipstick, pretty face And maybe you'll notice something Different about me, different about me" because maybe if she wore lipstick or dressed up once in a while he'll notice something diferent about her, like think that she's cute or something, which is, like, attraction (god, am i the only one who thinks I sound like a total dork??? lol). and maybe he has a girlfriend, and she thinks that his girlfriend isn't good enough for him. she's telling him that "sooner or later" he'll realize taht she was there all along, while that b*tch was totally messing with him.
soooo yeah. that's more or less my "song meaning" XD. in a nutshell: she wants her guy friend - who has a girlfriend - to see that she's girlfriend material and that he's all hers if he wants her sooner or later.
or something. lmao i dunno i realy suck at this kind of stuff
this song to me his about a michelle and the boy who are really good friends like they probaly talk about evrything so the boy probaly talk a lot about his problems in relationship with others girls and michelle hidng her true feeling for him by helping him with his problems. i guess but over the years of there friendship she fell in love with him and he his to blind to see that sso she sing this song hopiing he get a clue and realizing that im the right girl for you im the who understands u but she kinda also saying that she wont wait on him forever and hopefully sooner or later he figure out she was evrything that u needed. she want him to realize this sooner but i dont know lol im not sure im right on this but that my opinion
In one of the interviews, she said that it was about a guy from high school, and that she's been writing it for a while, and finally got all of the words.
Lipstick, pretty face And maybe you'll notice something Different about me, different about me Yeah you talk, talk all you want You pour your heart out But you never do see, you never do see me Maybe if I dress up and act like someone I'm not, you'll notice me. You talk about everything- your life, problems, girls, etc. and I'm nothing more than the person you talk to. You never see me.
Oh, can't wait around forever for you I can't wait forever for you
Sooner or later, you're gonna come around And you'll be sorry when you figure out That I was always everything that you needed Sooner or later, you're gonna wish you had me Yeah you're gonna wish you had me Sooner or later you're gonna see how we were perfect, and you'll be sorry you missed out on me and what we could be. I was always everything you needed to make you happy, and one day you'll wish you had me.
Well she don't do nothing for you But mess you up, yeah she messes you up I'm your shoulder, I'm your quick drive over Trying to fix your stuff, well I give up She isn't right for you at all. I'm the sholder to cry on when things go wrong. I try to solve all of your problems for you, but I'm done, I give up. Just do it yourself.
[Bridge] [Chorus]
Lipstick, pretty face And maybe you'll notice something Different about me, different about me *You only notice me when I act like someone I'm not.
[Chorus]
Anyways, it's a good song. Very relatable. :)
