This song is for Maggie.

Someday, I’ll make it there, I swear, to that place that haunts my dreams at night,
Singing heavenly highway hymns all the way up to that beautiful old countryside,
Someday, I’ll find the words to explain all the good times that echo through my mind,
Your grin in the mornings, a warm southern sun, or seeing double when those chemicals align
Just some kids who needed love, using laughter as their drug, doing their best to tow that hard line,
Someday, I will lie under blue skies, in a hay field that holds me like home,
I’ll ask forgiveness with God as my witness for straying so far on my own,

Today, I will hold my head up high,
Knowing some day, comes one day at a time,
Today, there’s a sun setting soon as suppers warm,
Today, I’ve got someday on my mind,

Someday, I will call up my old friends and we’ll catch up with too many beers,
Pull an all-nighter, sitting around fire, for the first time in so many years,

Someday,

Someday, I will come to my senses, stop sitting on fences in fear,
And I will realize, after all of this time that some day was always just right here,

Today, I will hold my head up high, knowing some day has been here the whole damn time,
There’s a sun set setting, I ain’t forgetting, the blood that made my heart warm,
Today, I found what I was searching for,

Someday, I will send you a postcard from the place that I’m smiling tonight,
I sang heavenly highway hymns all the way up to this beautiful warm country side.

  • Anyone else been on this journey with Zach the last couple years and have gotten to watch him grow as a musician, as a person, as a song writer. It is truly relieving and brings me such joy that Zach has found a life worth living. I hope to soon find that ninth cloud, it has been rough, but your music has gotten me through most of it.
  • If you by chance see this, you’re an incredible man Zach. Maggie, she was one of my best friends . And that was her handwriting on that wall. Thank you for doing what you do
  • I don’t know what it is, but Zach has it.. Discovered his music at the exact moment I needed to hear it..
  • My brother just died and this song popped up on my playlist when I was going through it. I added it months ago but never listened, then when it came on it hit me like a ton of bricks. It's like my big bro was playing it just for me, I broke down hard and it helped me so much to go through that I'm learning so many lessons from you, Joey, even now. I'm going to see you someday, and we're going to pick up exactly where we left off. I love you so much, I wish I could hug you one more time.
  • This man does not miss, even at 2:27 AM on a Monday
  • Zach Bryan never fails to turn a regular day into a good day.
  • "Knowing someday comes one day at a time." As an anxious person always worried about the future, this line hit me straight in the heart. Take time to appreciate the present, because tomorrow is never promised. What a well-written song!!
  • one of the most underrated Zach Bryan songs...makes your soul ache for all that's good, beautiful, and simple in this complicated world
  • @Tom-wj4xe
    The fact you didn’t clean the mirror but just wiped enough sums up my love for Zach’s music

    "Someday, I will lie under blue skies, in a hay field that holds me like home, I’ll ask forgiveness with God as my witness for straying so far on my own,..." just wonderful....
  • My wife recently passed and this song gives me hope of seeing her again. Sue. I miss you

    Awe man. This summer after a week in the NICU and months of losing abilities I learned I had a neurological disorder. It affects literally every system in my body, every aspect of my life and each day is different in how good or bad I am. I never know anymore when I wake up if it’ll even be a day worth getting up for. So much I suddenly couldn’t do. Fishing in my kayak, Exploring with my kids, Hunting, concerts, camping. I’ll seize, or black out, or not have the ability to walk, I am never alone with myself anymore and I need that. It’s how I recalibrate. Solitude with music. Not being able to drive anymore. My lover of 20 years is now my caretaker and I’m only 39. How could he ever look at me and want me after having to clean me when I lose my faculties? Everything about this just made me ANGRY. I wanted ME back so I could have MY FUTURE back. My neurologist broke it down for me…he said “There is no tomorrow. From now on, we only think of today, and we work with it.” And tonight here’s Zach telling me the same thing. So here’s what I got… A love who’s been so kind and patient, whose love is apparent daily. Who can still manage to make me feel beautiful when I’m 39 and in a diaper. Lol and these 20 years have been beautiful together. a teen age girl with a guitar and the voice of an Angel who learns Zach Bryan and Hozier and Dermot Kennedy’s songs and plays them sitting next to me in my bed or on the porch…she gives me the gift of live music that I love so much, it just comes in a slightly higher and less manly voice at home instead of a venue😊 I’ve got a mother in law who lets me get sad, then angry, then says that’s good enough, we’re dusting you off and you’re gonna FIGHT I’ve got a Daddy that calls me everyday, who takes me to the 5 different rehabs I go to, and totes his 4 grandkids places so they don’t miss out just bc I can’t drive. I have amazing friends who’ve come alongside my family and made sure on my worst days that my family had a hot meal. I got 4 kids who call me Mama, I have a big son who isn’t embarrassed in front of anyone by my walker or wheelchair or when I’m walking funny, or having tics and jerks. Doesn’t bother him one but. I’ve got a little son, who still needs to always be wrapped up in my arms like he always has, I’m showered in his kisses and his sweet words I’ve got my guitar girl who is also my scary movie partner, cutting up boards of snacks to make every movie special. And I got my sweet quiet brave hearted girl, who will stay by my side when I black out, push my hair from my face and try and hold my hand until a seizure passes. Who will stay at my side when my legs don’t work bc she doesn’t want me to want for anything and not be able to get it. Right now, Right here, that’s what’s sleeping upstairs. Right now, that’s what I’ve got. The life I planned didn’t go the way I planned it. But living in this moment at 2am, I am the most blessed person in the whole dang world. And maybe my some days will come back and I’ll be doubly blessed to experience it all and I’ll sure be happy that someday made it to today. We are a “music” family. It’s huge in all our lives, and by hoping to hear something I maybe hadn’t heard yet from Zach, he gave some wise words and a good song to show me I don’t have to be angry. I can choose to see what’s in front of me, and be happy and satisfied. (I’m sorry to those who stuck around to the end… I know it’s a novella, lol, it’s just when I got words in me I gotta get them out. And sometimes that stuff takes a while😊 ❤)
  • Zachs songs have so much meaning and story telling, I feel some of his songs like these will not be played on the radio because they’re not “upbeat” enough for today’s mainstream country music fans. I’m not saying this in a bad way, I love Zach and I pray to God that he does get recognition he deserves. This is art. Music like Zach and Childers have so much feel to them, that make you realize how beautiful a songs writing is and the story that they tell. It’s the little things us fans notice and is such an inspiration to me and many others. This man has legend status already and we don’t deserve him. Thank you for blessing us with your beautiful music Zach ❤️

    The little speech before the song is proof that Zach has got to be one of the hard hitting truths I've heard in a while. Truly shows the genius of not only his songwriting but the joy that he's finding in life
  • I am in the military and have been away from home for almost a year and a half. I just got home yesterday and all my friends were there to greet me and they had a bonfire ready. The lyrics of this song with friends by a fire hits hard.
  • My faith in Americana Country is restored. That live fiddle gives me chills. The harmony vocals. The acoustic instruments. It's proper.
  • @Joeygyall
    Zach writes about shit we all live and deal with, he’s a story teller, someone who will always write the right things.
  • TBI survivor and this song speaks life to anyone feeling behind or anyone needing a lift. Thank you Zach Bryan. *One day at a time. Don't try to rush something that needs time or doesn't need rushed. Hope this speaks to someone.
  • @jrlucio28
    I would pay for a livestream of Zach singing a full set of all his songs
