Lyrics for One of these days as interpreted by minkydave

One of these days Lyrics
Say something,
Oh anything will do my love
Theres a girl on the phone
Thats a girl whos never home

Say something good
There's a wilderness of hope
Thats a girl on the phone
Thats a girl whos never home

And your friends they were so close

Say you will stay
Forget what i came here for
Passing signs on the road
Telling me im far from home

Strangers out here
Myself I disappear
That's the killer on a call
That's the man who works alone

Your friends they were so close
One by one they didn't stay
Drift away like rolling sea
One by one they drift away
One of these days
One of these days

And your friends they were so close
One by one they didn't stay
Drift away like rolling seas
Day by day they drift away
And the people that were close
Are the ones you miss the most

One of these days I'll blow away
One of these days I'll blow away

Maybe the lead singer dated the subject of the song too. I definitely did.

To me it's about a relationship in which the girl is more devote to her friends than the relationship itself. Meanwhile the guy in the relationship has no friends, is a relative isolate and due to this fact is seen to be strange and is eventually alienated. Meanwhile, the song's lyrics suggest that eventually all of the girl's friends with whom she is so close fade away one by one becoming nothing once again. He who is nothing, had nothing before and had nothing after already knows this problem too well as in the past he has had friends that drift away and realizes that in the end everyone is alone.

Somehow I felt this song was about these two people who's friends have come and gone much like it always is. They both are hoping that one day they can both find someone who can stick around. He wants the girl to be that person for him but maybe he realizes no one ever does stick around for long. Sort of depressing but that's how it sounds. I love this song especially the beginning the singer's voice is brilliant!

Am I totally off the mark in thinking that this song has sections in it that sound very similar to Pink Floyd?

There is also a song by Floyd called 'One of these days', although nothing like this one.
