Someday, Someway Lyrics

I can't stand to see you sad.
I can't bear to hear you cry.
If you can't tell me what you need,
all I can do is wonder why.

Someday, someway,
someday someway, yeah now,
someday someway,
maybe I'll understand you

After all you've done for me,
all I really want to do.
Is take the love you brought my way,
and give it all right back to you.

Someday, someway,
someday someway, yeah now,
someday someway,
Maybe you'll understand me

You've taken everything from me,
I've taken everything from you.
I'll love for my whole life through.

Now after all you've done for me,
all I really want to do.
Is take the love you brought my way,
and give it all right back to you.

Someday, someway,
someday someway, yeah now,
someday someway,
Maybe you'll understand me

You've taken everything from me,
I've taken everything from you.
I'll love for my whole life through.

I can't stand to see you sad.
I can't bear to hear you cry.
If you can't tell me what you need,
all I can do is wonder why.

Someday, someway,
someday someway, yeah now,
someday someway,
maybe I'll understand you
(repeat until fade)

The last line on verses 4 and 7 is wrong. It should be "Maybe you'll understand me" which changes the meaning of the song.

I saw Marshall Crenshaw in concert not long ago. People kept shouting for this song and it was pretty clear he's tired of doing it although he did. He's my newest favorite!

I think this song is about a parent wishing they could communicate with their crying newborn. Certainly how I felt when my children were very young!

My Interpretation

No one has commented on this song? I love it! It sort of has a 50's feel to it. I love 50's music! I think it is about how some guy is trying to understand his gf.
