He's on the phone, and she wants to go home Shoes in hand, don't make a sound, its time to go
(ooh-ooh) Someday (someday), someday
he's on the phone, doesn't want to go home The hotel life - forget your wife, you're on your own Academia girl Her life's a gas, she loves the trash inside his world Can't find his way there Got the cash, feeling flash in Leicester Square
(ooh-ooh) Yes She never meant to call, she did anyway And now he's trying to find the words to say Someday (someday), someday (someday) Yes She never meant to call, she did anyway And now he's trying to find the words to say Someday (someday), someday
Its five to twelve and she's nervous as hell With nothing to lose, its hard to choose its hard to tell Skin is dewdrop and warm The lipstick kiss, reminisce, awake til dawn
(ooh-ooh) Yes She never meant to call, she did anyway And now he's trying to find the words to say Someday (someday), someday (someday) Yes. (ooh-ooh) She never meant to call, she did anyway And now he's trying to find the words to say Someday (someday), someday (someday)
He's on the phone and she wants to go home Shoes in hand, don't make a sound, its time to go
Ooh-ooh Yes She never meant to call, she did anyway And now he's trying to find the words to say Someday (someday), someday (someday) Yes (ooh-ooh) She never meant to call, she did anyway And now he's trying to find the words to say Someday (someday), someday (someday), someday
