Mostly when you order something and it says "3-4 business days" it either arrives weirdly quickly, like before noon the day after you ordered or it takes 3-4 weeks.

It’s always never.

Soon could mean anything, soon could be three weeks…

is that what soon means to you?

Sometimes…

then come back soon

Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.

First thing I remember was asking Papa why
For there were many things I didn't know

And Daddy always smiled, took me by the hand
Saying someday you'll understand

Well, I'm here to tell you now each and ev'ry mother's son
You better learn it fast, and you better learn it young
'Cause someday, never comes
