This song is great first of all, and my personal fav of Rivers's just behind Longtime Sunshine. It's about waiting for your "day to shine" so to speak. That is, despite inevitable lows, failures, trials, and tribulations, with perseverance and continued effort we will eventually realize our potential, which becomes our day to reflect upon our present efforts with unabated pride. Rivers also enumerates several U.S.-born soccer professionals, which to me is message of inspiration to the U.S. soccer program and its fanbase. Rivers is saying that U.S. soccer will one day realize their dream of winning on the world stage, which has managed to evade our country until present. Hang in there fellas, OUR day is coming! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!
