One More Tomorrow
Eric Benet' Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Last night I dreamed my life was over and done
The angels threw me high above
They called it Heaven, but I know it was a lie
For when I looked, you weren't inside

[Chorus 1]
If I had only one more tomorrow
I'd spend that day with you
I'd feel no more pain or sorrow there with you

[Verse 2]
Last night my dream revealed the day could soon come
Without your kiss, your touch, your love
The first tears of Heaven cried would be mine
Till you were there right by my side

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]
If I had only one more tomorrow
Imagine if you could
I'd spend my final hours, yes I would

[Bridge]
Sometimes life makes us feel so secure
Like our days will last forever
Time will come when I'll be no more
Just think of me and remember

[Chorus 1]





[Chorus 2]

Last night I dreamed my life was over and done
In my dream, I saw that my life was coming to an end


The angels threw me high above
I was lifted up by the angels


They called it Heaven, but I know it was a lie
It was called Heaven, but I knew that it wasn't real


For when I looked, you weren't inside
I couldn't find you in there


If I had only one more tomorrow
If I had just one more day to live


I'd spend that day with you
I would spend that day with the one I love


I'd feel no more pain or sorrow there with you
I wouldn't feel any more sadness or pain when I'm with you


Last night my dream revealed the day could soon come
My dream showed me that the end could be near


Without your kiss, your touch, your love
Without your affection, your touch, and your love


The first tears of Heaven cried would be mine
The first tears from heaven would be mine and I would be sad


Till you were there right by my side
Until you were there with me, next to me


Imagine if you could
Just imagine


I'd spend my final hours, yes I would
I would spend my last moments with you


Sometimes life makes us feel so secure
Sometimes, life makes us believe that things will always be the same


Like our days will last forever
Like we have all the time in the world


Time will come when I'll be no more
The day will come when I won't be here anymore


Just think of me and remember
Just remember me and think of the times we shared

Eric Benet: Maestro of Exquisite Love Songs and very smooth...very easy on the ear and beautiful rhythms, melodies, harmonics, trills, and those musical elements that make real music; and no noise. Noise is disturbing... but good, sound music makes for joyful, inspiring, ennobling listening and culture. 'Nuff said. Keep it up, Maestro.
