One Day Lyrics by Chris Difford

I Didn’t Get Where I Am

0

[Verse 1]
Flying model aeroplanes, landing on the window sill
Listening to the milkman
On the doorstep with his pint of milk
Fear was not a word I knew, jumping from the highest tree
All of my imaginary friends who liked to jump with me

[Chorus]
One day everything will be all right
One day…

[Verse 2]
First time that I got to fly, mother cried into her sleeve
Liverpool as way below, silver wings that kept us high
All my dreams were shattered there, when we flew above the sea
Never thought this world would spark the [?] that’s inside of me

[Chorus]
One day everything will be all right
One day my world will get to meet the sky
One day

[Bridge]
If wishes were light
Then darkness would shine all around me
If living was sweet
We’d all still be living in honey
When it all seemed so simple and free
I got attracted to the other side of me

[Chorus]
One day
Sometime
Some place

[Verse 3]
Crying at the check in gate, praying for serenity
Looking at the great white clouds waiting in the sky above
Thinking I might not return

[Bridge]
If wishes were light
Then darkness would shine all around me
If living was sweet
We’d all still be living in honey
When it all seemed so simple and free
I got attracted to the other side of me

[Chorus]
One day
These wheels are going to touch the ground
Sometime
I’d like to be back down on earth
Someplace
I’ll fly that model aeroplane

[Outro]
One day
One day
One day
