Just One Day
Standing here on the banks of a river
Though the sun is shining, the clouds are looking like snow
I've carried you now for most of an hour
And you've been smiling but we both know it's time you went home
'Cause we've come so far and we've fought so hard
We're struggling now but I know we're not meant to depart
I knew from the start
And if our light turns red and we're in for the flames
Then I'll be happy knowing you were mine, even just for a day
Even just for a day, yeah
Can we take it back to before there was trouble
When you looked into my eyes
And in yours there was nothing but hope
Where did that go?
And now you're walking 'round with some guy from the town
I know you swear that it was nothing
It's what everybody's talking about
I let you down
'Cause we've come so far and we've fought so hard
We're struggling now but I know we're not meant to depart
I knew from the start
And if our light turns red and we're in for the flames
Then I'll be happy knowing you were mine, even just for a day
Even just for a day
Before you went away for a year and a day
I saw our future as a promise
Our forever as a needless-to-say
Now maybe someday
'Cause we've come so far and we've fought so hard
We're struggling now but I know we're not meant to depart
I knew from the start
And if our light turns red and we're in for the flames
Then I'll be happy knowing you were mine, even just for a day
Even just for a day
'Cause we've come so far and we've fought so hard
We're struggling now but I know we're not meant to depart
I knew from the start
And if our light turns red and we're in for the flames
Then I'll be happy knowing you were mine, even just for a day
Even just for a day
Even just one day
Just one day
Though the sun is shining, the clouds are looking like snow
I've carried you now for most of an hour
And you've been smiling but we both know it's time you went home
'Cause we've come so far and we've fought so hard
We're struggling now but I know we're not meant to depart
I knew from the start
And if our light turns red and we're in for the flames
Then I'll be happy knowing you were mine, even just for a day
Even just for a day, yeah
Can we take it back to before there was trouble
When you looked into my eyes
And in yours there was nothing but hope
Where did that go?
And now you're walking 'round with some guy from the town
I know you swear that it was nothing
It's what everybody's talking about
I let you down
'Cause we've come so far and we've fought so hard
We're struggling now but I know we're not meant to depart
I knew from the start
And if our light turns red and we're in for the flames
Then I'll be happy knowing you were mine, even just for a day
Even just for a day
Before you went away for a year and a day
I saw our future as a promise
Our forever as a needless-to-say
Now maybe someday
'Cause we've come so far and we've fought so hard
We're struggling now but I know we're not meant to depart
I knew from the start
And if our light turns red and we're in for the flames
Then I'll be happy knowing you were mine, even just for a day
Even just for a day
'Cause we've come so far and we've fought so hard
We're struggling now but I know we're not meant to depart
I knew from the start
And if our light turns red and we're in for the flames
Then I'll be happy knowing you were mine, even just for a day
Even just for a day
Even just one day
Just one day
