One Day

One day in Cardiff a little boy sat alone
He stared up at the closing moon
He grazed the scars running up his legs
Wondering what is was he did so bad
One day in Paris brothers run up the hills
Running away they don't wanna go back
'Cause mother doesn't love her sons
And father drinks a little too much

And day by day watch the sky dim
With the feathers of a flock
Seeing the crowd sway til the worlds collide as one
Day by day watch the moon dip
And never meet the sun
Alone with the diamonds laced around each stud
Waiting for the day, when the light returns to stay
Til the worlds collide as one

One day in Delhi a kid lies in his bed
He wonders if he'll ever make friends
He can't wait to meet the people he's like
Sits by the window through the night
One day in Edinburgh a young girl runs
Looking for flowers to bring to her Mum
She and her sister in an endless fight
She wonders what went through their minds

And day by day watch the sky dim
With the feathers of a flock
Seeing the crowd sway til the worlds collide as one
Day by day watch the moon dip
And never meet the sun
Alone with the diamonds laced around each stud
Waiting for the day, when the light returns to stay
Ti the worlds collide as one

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Hold on, don't let go
Hold on, you'll make it through
Oooooooooooh
Til the worlds collide as one

One day in Manila she waits for the bus
She wonders why the world is so rough
She can't wait to find where she belongs
And say goodbye to the city she's from
One day in London they sit and wait for the train
None of them know that today will be the day
One day
