One (Live)

It's just one heart full
We built to be better
If for three more seconds left
Before it's over
And just one more breath we take
But, too impatiently
Til three more wishes left
Before the future now

One more for Georgia
One more for cotton mills
For pennies in the wishing wells
For Louisiana
For ole Pontchartrain
For gumbo and the sound of rain

One day you're gonna find
Happiness is a state of mind and
All the things you reach for turn to ash and fall away
And in the darkest night
You hold yourself a guiding light, so
Rest now my weary child, be gentle when you wake
Gentle when you wake

For old Kentucky
For golden fields of grain
For whiskey and the holy name
For Carolina
Things will never change
The land of milk and Mary-Jane

It's just one heart full
We built to be better
If for three more seconds left
Before it's over
And just one more breath we take
But, too impatiently
Til three more wishes
Left before the future now
