From the recording Found
“Said 1 Day” is the story of a young couple who are thinking of eloping. But life gets in the way. She doesn’t want to leave too soon because she doesn’t know how her Mom will feel. They make excuses. They get into fights. They end up never running away together, but only half-regretting it. If you’ve ever experienced the ragged mix of rejection, acceptance, and eminent big life changes, while teetering on the edge of an emotional cliff, you might relate to these guys.
Lyrics
It was gonna be some day
you said one day.
You were gonna stay til Sunday
but for your mother's sake.
We were gonna run away.
It was just the other day.
You were gonna go today.
Wait-was that today?
It was gonna be ok.
And then one day she ran away.
Never wondered what to say.
What happened to the other day?
We were gonna go some day
never felt it anyway.
We had to get away
never got to run away
doesn't matter what I say
you're gonna hate me anyway
I'm gonna love you anyway
just until I don't someday.
Had a man we had to pay.
it was gonna be ok
but we never ran away.
It was gonna be ok.
I was gonna love you anyway.
