Sometime Other Than Now

SOMETIME OTHER THAN NOW - John Hiatt

Maybe your momma didn't treat you right;

Maybe her intentions weren't even very good

Maybe your daddy laid awake at night

Imagining himself in some other neighbourhood

Left to our own devices - like maybe they were too

Out on the open road and wondering what to do

You ask how we got here: baby, don't ask how

Cause that was sometime other than now

"It takes what it takes" - that's what they told us girl

Done a lot of dumb things, probably do some more

On two different paths running round on different worlds

We finally found each other, who we were looking for

I see my own reflection and I give my love to you

It shot back like an arrow, so straight and true

You ask how we got here: baby, don't ask how

Cause that was sometime other than now

I'm not leaving babe, whatever's come, right here and now

Maybe tommorrow we can take it

I'm not grieving baby, any more - the past is gone

We can't fake it; baby let's make it with this love of ours somehow

A little bit of feel, you know it goes a long way

It's followed us around since we were little kids

Just a little faith, baby, baby, some day

We will have the strength, the strength to forgive

Don't come all of a sudden, but when it's here at last

You'd blink your eyes and miss it, it happens so fast

You ask how we got here: baby, don't ask how

Cause that was sometime other than now

Yeah that was sometime other than now
