One Day Sözleri

Tell me, is everything unplanned?

It's all so unexpected that I just can't understand

We run so hard and always end up in the same place

"Glad that went so smoothly" well that never is the case

One day - doubtless, cloudless, bright

We'll shake away the shadows of eternal night

It's just the storm before the calm

Like the life held in your palm - it's clay, one day

And you stand there, with ashes blowing past

Dipping into gilt-edged love that will be made at last

And the gold you spend and the hastening end

That you throw into the sea

Coming back a hundredfold, there's no guarantee

We'll walk and be like giants, we'll all be honest men

I go back to my blindness so that I may see again

A woman standing on a hill is gazing out to sea

Dreaming of a new age waiting there for me

I call her from a distance and she smiles into the sun

And men and gods begin their dance, for their time has begun

And holy wars extended and battlefields of pain

Washed away, forgotten in the perfect rain

Princes, kings and humble things are well-worn and content

Messengers come everywhere, envoys have been sent

"Na na na na, na na na na na

A palm tree nodded at me last night he said

'Hey you look so pale.' "
