Lyrics
One Day
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sometimes I lay under the Moon
And thank God I'm breathing
Then I pray: Don't take me soon
'Cause I'm here for a reason
Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around because
All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
There will be no more wars
And our children will play
One day (one day)
One day (one day)
One day (ooh)
One day (one day)
One day (one day)
One day (ooh)
It's not about win or lose
Because we all lose
When they feed on the souls of the innocent
Blood-drenched pavement
Keep on moving though the waters stay raging
In this maze you can lose your way
Your way
It might drive you crazy
But don't let it faze you no way
No way
Sometimes in my tears I drown (I drown)
But I never let it get me down (get me down)
So when negativity surrounds (surrounds)
I know some day it'll all turn around because
All my life I've been waiting for (waiting for)
I've been praying for (praying for)
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more (fight no more)
There will be no more wars (no more wars)
And our children will play
One day (one day)
One day (one day)
One day (ooh)
One day (one day)
One day (one day)
One day (ooh)
One day this all will change
Treat people the same
Stop with the violence
Down with the hate
One day we'll all be free
And proud to be
Under the same Sun
Singing songs of freedom like
(One day, one day)
(Ooh)
(One day, one day)
(Ooh)
All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
There'll be no more wars
And our children will play
One day (one day)
One day (one day)
One day (ooh)
One day (one day)
One day (one day)
One day (ooh)
(One day)
(One day)
(One day)
