Lyrics

I used to be a silver-tongued devil
I used to be a ramblin', gamblin' fool
I played it fast and loose
I broke a lot of rules
I've done things that I've regretted
I've had some moments in the sun
But I'd trade it all in just to see you again
Baby, one of these days.

I've reached out to heaven
I've crawled through the ashes of hell
I've come face to face with my demons
I politely took my leave
And wished them well
I've been to the top of the mountain
I've stumbled through the desert sand
But I'd trade it all in just to see you again
Baby. one of these days.

One of these days I'd like to walk around a corner
And suddenly see your lovely face
I keep a sharp eye out, I'm always watching
For the right time and the right place

I'm a knight in battered armor
A sailor tossed upon the sea
A tired and wounded warrior
No princess waits for me
I no longer live for the future
But the memories of where and who I've been
But I'd trade it all in just to see you again
Baby, one of these days.
Oh, I'd trade it all in just to see you again
Baby, one of these days.
