One Day - Lyrics:
Lying here wide awake on my own now
Silence is the loudest cry
I'm safe but I've lost everything I've known
I can smile because the pain has gone
But cry because it's where i'm from
God I turn to You to make me strong again
One day I can reach that rainbow
Watch the sweet reflection
Shining off my first home
I'd give anything to see my family again
And say how much I love them
That's all I imagine
One day
I wish I could go back tomorrow
If it's only for just one second
Put warmth back into a town that's frozen
I can smile because the pain has gone
But cry because it's where i'm from
God I turn to You to make me strong again
One day I can reach that rainbow
Watch the sweet reflection
Shining off my first home
I'd give anything to see my family again
And say how much I love them
That's all I imagine
One day
I have cried so many times
And all those tears have washed my eyes
I see clearly into the light
'Cause I believe
I know one day I'll be home again
To start a new life, with peace everywhere
Right from the start until the end
I believe
That one day
I can reach that rainbow
Watch the sweet reflection
Shining off my first home
I'd give anything to see my family again
And say how much I love them
That's all I imagine
One day, one day
I believe that one day
One day
