Someday, I know I’ll find that road
And I, will pay back all I’ve owed
Somehow, I’ll bear that heavy load
Someday

I know, I’ve never been the best
Never quite kept up with the rest
But someday you’ll see I’ve reached that crest
Someday

And then we’ll smile
And toast our glasses high
And the world will know
You and I

Till then in spite of all I’ve done
I’ll keep on reachin for the sun
And someday we’ll be number one
Someday

The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to Someday" means the words set to the music of Someday, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Bob Seger. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics. Hence, by this analysis of word structure, you could say that the lyric to Someday and the lyrics to Someday are both one and the same thing.
