[Verse 1]

It might hurt a little while, hurt a little while
It might hurt a little longer than a little while

[Chorus 1]

One of these days I’m gonna smile again, yeah
One of these days I’m gonna smile
One of these days I’m gonna smile again
One of these days I’m gonna smile

[Verse 2]

I might cry a little while, cry a little while
I might cry a little longer than a little while

[Chorus 2]

One of these days I’m gonna laugh again, oh
One of these days I’m gonna laugh, mmm hmm
One of these days I’m gonna laugh again
One of these days I’m gonna smile, h-hmm

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]

I might need a little walk, I might need a little talk
I might need a little help for a little while

[Verse 4]

I might need a little ca-are, all my friends were there
Might need a little love for a little while

[Verse 5]

I might feel a little weary, I might need a new theory
I might feel a little bad for a little while, woah well

[Chorus 3]

One of these days I’m gonna shine again shine again
One of these days I’m gonna shine
One of these days I’m gonna shine again
One of these days I’m gonna smile, hmmm

Smile, smile,ooh hoo, smile, ooh woo hoo ooh hoo
