Lyrics It Gonna Come - Melody Gardot

It Gonna Come

See that man sittin' in front of the border line
He ain’t got the time to argue what’s yours and what is mine
See that man holdin' his hand out in desperation
He don’t see salvation, no god and sure no nation
We all workin' for the means to the end of our situation
We all hopin' for the day that the powers see abdication and run
I said it gonna come, I said it gonna come
See that man sittin' in front of the Jewelry store
He can’t walk no more, he just too damn poor
See that man holdin' his eyes from the glarin' sun
He ain’t got no one, his hopes all been undone
We all workin' for the means to the end of our situation
We all hopin' for the day that the powers see abdication and run
I said it gonna come, I said it gonna come
Nothin' good comes from nothin'
Nothin' comes from nothin' good
Why you spend the whole day bluffin'
Come on man do what you should
What you mean the world ain’t easy
What you mean the world ain’t mine
Last I checked there were no price tags
Hangin' on them shady pines
What you say when you say nothin'
What you mean when you say lies
Politician tell me somethin'
What you got behind them eyes, cause
We all workin' for the means to the end of our situation
We all hopin' for the day that the powers see abdication and run
I said it gonna come darling, I said it gonna come
