Woke up this morning I cried in my dreams Couldn't find my way out of this broken machine Drove down my car to a place I once knew There was nothing left there but eyeshadow in the gloom Found myself wondering Lost and confused Not waiting for a miracle don't mind if I lose Sat by my balcony looked at the stars They used to shine for me lord where are they now One of these days I'm gonna fly like an eagle One of these nights I'm gonna shine like the stars One of these days I'm gonna roar like a lion One of these days I'm gonna rise like the sun Went to the doctor he said there's nothing wrong You're not sick it's just a ache in your soul Packed up my suitcase I took my guitar I crossed the ocean had to travel so far One of these days I'm gonna fly like an eagle One of these nights I'm gonna shine like the stars One of these days I'm gonna roar like a lion One of these days I'm gonna rise like the sun As you run from town to town Can't find no peace of mind your Heart of stone will always pull you down On the run from dusk to dawn Fake dreams and raging drums a million shattered tears become as one Become as one One of these days I'm gonna fly like an eagle One of these nights I'm gonna shine like the stars One of these days I'm gonna roar like a lion One of these days I'm gonna rise like the sun Rise like the sun Gonna rise like the sun Rise like the sun Gonna rise like the sun
