"One Day" lyrics

"One Day"

For so long my soul was scared
Afraid of what might be found in there
If I should ever dare to listen
It's such a tiresome load to carry
To have a heart so torn and wary
That leaves all that could be buried or missin'

But one day I'm gonna get there
Where the livin' is easy
And my spirit believes me
When I sing my song
And one day I'm gonna wake up
With the battle behind me
Let the stars remind me
That I'm right where I belong

When the dream was young and bolder
Wasn't much that I couldn't shoulder
But the world can leave you cold and undone
The sun is setting in the western sky
There's still so much life to try
I'm not ready to say goodbye to this one

'Cause one day I'm gonna end up
Where the beautiful sees me
And the trouble just leaves me
Which leaves me feelin' so much better

And one day I'm gonna get there
Where the lovin' is easy
And my spirit believes me
When I sing my song
And one day I'm gonna wake up
With the battle behind me
And let the stars remind me
That I'm right where I belong

Let the stars remind me
That I'm right where I belong
