The New Radicals (Post 2/2)

Song Lyrics

The New Radicals song lyrics to "Someday We'll Know." Again, off of the Maybe you've been brainwashed too album. In my opinion, this song became popular (to people who weren't already The New Radicals fans) after being on the soundtrack to A Walk To Remember. Mandy Moore, Shane West, and Peter Coyote helped rocket this song's publicity with that movie.

I used a Youtube cover video for this post, because it's hard to find one allowed with the original band. The artists who cover the song do a pretty good job on the cover, so I hope you're not disappointed. I personally think they did a great job, and the acoustics are good for where they are playing the song.

I touched in the last post entitled The New Radicals - You get what you give., about how when I hear music by The New Radicals, I can't help but feel good. These two songs are just up beat. I also really like the lyrics in this one.

The Lyrics

Someday We'll Know lyrics

90 miles outside Chicago
Can't stop driving
I don't know why
So many questions
I need an answer
Two years later you're still on my mind
Whatever happened to Emelia Earhart
Who holds the stars up in the sky
Is true love once in a lifetime
Did the captain of the titanic cry
Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you
Does anybody know the way to Atlantis
Or what the wind says when she cries
I'm speeding by the place that I met you
For the 97th time tonight
Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you
Someday we'll know
Why Samson loved Delilah
One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know
That I was the one for you
I bought a ticket to the end of the rainbow
I watched the stars crash in the sea
If I could ask god just one question
Why aren't you here with me
Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you
Someday we'll know
Why Samson loved Delilah
One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know
That I was the One for you

  2. Hey Marty,
    Thanks for commenting! Good point. I did a little looking and came across an interesting article in Wikipedia. It would appear that Gregg was a little fed up with publicity and promoting his album... it's interesting. Check it out.
