The plan was to put out a double-sided EP, one side Example & the other K-Otix. Well, things didn't go as planned, so both groups decided to do 2 seperate EPs & release them around the same time. Done deal. Kay became writing the very first song on July 26, 1996. We both produced 3 songs each on the EP. January 1997, we released our 6 song EP titled, "Impulses". We only pressed 500 copies." - Cipher

Example's song "One More Day" is about a man who has to leave his lover and move somewhere miles away. He pours out his heart to her and asks for just one more day together before he must finally leave. He acknowledges that the only thing they can do is hope and pray and feel grateful for the time they've had together. The song is a plea to stay with him, even if it's just for one more day, because he has fallen for her and loves her so much.
The lyrics are powerful and heartfelt, and they capture the pain of having to leave someone you love. The song's chorus repeats the phrase "Stay with me" over and over, emphasizing the man's desperation and longing for his lover's company. He knows he has to leave, but he wants to savor every moment they have left together.

Zostań ze mną jeszcze jeden dzień
Muszę się przenieść gdzieś mile dalej
Jedyna nadzieja jaką mamy to uśmiechać się i modlić
Kolejna lekcja przyswojona
Kolejna strona przewrócona
Postaw na swoje pragnienie, powiedz żegnaj, albo baw się ogniem, baw się ogniem, poparzysz się
Kolejna lekcja przyswojona
Kolejna strona przewrócona
Nadszedł czas, muszę lecieć i wtedy mówisz te cenne słowa
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną, zostań ze mną jeszcze jeden dzień
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną, zostań ze mną jeszcze jeden dzień
Sprawiasz, że tracę skupienie i porę dnia
Zaledwie minuta w twoich ramionach, noc, to ulatuje
Kolejna lekcja przyswojona
Kolejna strona przewrócona
Postaw na swoje pragnienie, powiedz żegnaj albo baw się ogniem, baw się ogniem, poparzysz się
Kolejna lekcja przyswojona
Kolejna strona przewrócona
Nadszedł czas, muszę lecieć i wtedy mówisz te cenne słowa
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną, zostań ze mną jeszcze jeden dzień
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną, zostań ze mną jeszcze jeden dzień
Zakochałem się w tobie, ty zakochałaś się we mnie
Zostań ze mną, zostań ze mną jeszcze jeden dzień
Zakochałem się w tobie, ty zakochałaś się we mnie
Zostań ze mną, zostań ze mną jeszcze jeden dzień
Och, myślę, że miłość do ciebie jest łatwa
Och, myślę, że miłość do ciebie jest łatwa
Oceniam, że ta niebiańska dziewczyna jest opiekunką
Powinienem ja zabrać do domu, uczynić to głębszym
Wybrać się na ten przyjemny spacer po plaży
Potem muszę opuścić kraj, wykorzystać Visę
Zabutelkuję naszą miłość, zabiorę litr
Do zobaczenia za kilka tygodni
Jesteśmy jak para świrów na Ibizie
Nawet gdy siedzimy na kanapie, garniesz do mnie
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną, zostań ze mną jeszcze jeden dzień
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną
Zostań ze mną, zostań ze mną jeszcze jeden dzień
Zakochałem się w tobie, ty zakochałaś się we mnie
Zostań ze mną, zostań ze mną jeszcze jeden dzień
Zakochałem się w tobie, ty zakochałaś się we mnie
Zostań ze mną, zostań ze mną jeszcze jeden dzień

I love this song, It sounds like 90's house- dance of the years '93-'94, and I like it :)

The redmen - You're my way, this is the original mix

heard this song on the radio earlier today and it's actually pretty good, I like it. nice tune from Example :)
Tarisai Mzwimbi
@Graham Lucas It's actually annoying when DJ's don't announce the song. If the station is not wealthy enough, it will not display the song on the monitor in your car. It's actually expensive to do that.
