After high school, Glenn began recording demos and performing at nightclubs, eventually becoming a respected act in Toronto. He parlayed this success into the release of his first single, "The Thing To Do," in 1998 on Beat Factory/BMG. The song won him a Juno Award for Best R&B Recording. His second single, "Bout Your Love," earned him a Juno nomination.
This exposure eventually landed him a deal with Epic Records. Glenn's debut album, World Outside My Window, was released on March 19, 2002. Fueled by the hit single "Don't You Forget It," the album peaked at #4 on the Billboard charts. He promoted the album by touring with R&B singers Alicia Keys and Tweet, among others.
In 2002, Lewis recorded a cover version of "Superstition" for the tribute album, Conception: An Interpretation of Stevie Wonder's Songs. Glenn also makes a brief appearance in the 2002 film Maid in Manhattan starring Jennifer Lopez and Ralph Fiennes. He contributed the song "Fall Again" to the film's soundtrack. A concert DVD, Glenn Lewis Live, was released in 2003.
Glenn prepared his sophomore album, Back For More for release in 2003. The first single, also titled "Back For More," and featuring rapper Kardinal Offishall, was released to radio and a video began to air. Unexplicably, the album was pushed back, first to later in the year, then to 2004. It remains unreleased. In the meantime, Glenn netted a Grammy nomination for his contribution to Stanley Clarke's "Where Is The Love", a duet also featuring Amel Larrieux.
Glenn left Epic Records in 2005, and is currently signed to Underdog Entertainment. According to Glenn's MySpace page, a new album, Remember Me, will see release in the spring of 2007.
Glenn Lewis now lives in Los Angeles and is not married but has children, two of them are named Tabias (the youngest), and Xavier.
One More Day
Glen Lewis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Vast as the universe, high like any mountain top
Put your world in reverse
Ain't nothing in these words rehearsed
So maybe we can make a first
Let me begin with a simple phrase
I'm a sinner for lovin' you the way I do
Still loving you was all the same
I never believed that love could be for me
Now I see clearly you were meant for me
And now I know the truth is to be with you
'Cause I know your love will always be there
So maybe if you give me
Maybe just one more day
Find it in your heart to stay
And maybe we can make it
Maybe we can make it right
Or maybe if you hold on
And if you hold on
Maybe give me one more day
Find it in your heart to stay
And maybe make it better
Maybe we can make it right
Or maybe if you hold on
Find out how deep this love can go
'Cause there ain't no guarantee
You leave or stay with me that anyways the right way
But surely we gon' make today, understood
If you would I'll be good
Knowing at times you couldn't stand it
Feeling taken for granted but I'm here to tell you, baby
I ain't going nowhere, I'ma be right here
Best believe, if love is all you need
Ooo, wee, baby, thick like gravy
Ups and downs, highs and lows
Where we'll stop only love knows
So maybe if you give me
Maybe just one more day
Find it in your heart to stay
And maybe we can make it
Maybe we can make it right
Or maybe if you hold on
And if you hold on
Maybe give me one more day
Find it in your heart to stay
And maybe make it better
Maybe we can make it right
Or maybe if you hold on
It ain't gonna be this way
We can work it out if we take our time
You know that it ain't gonna be this way
We can work it out if we take our time
So maybe if you give me
Maybe just one more day
Find it in your heart to stay
And maybe we can make it
Maybe we can make it right
Or maybe if you hold on
And if you hold on
Maybe give me one more day
Find it in your heart to stay
And maybe make it better
Maybe we can make it right
Or maybe if you hold on
So if you give me
Maybe just one more day
Find it in your heart to stay

This one of those songs you can skate off. I love it! His voice is a mixture of Stevie Wonder and Music SoulChild.
@theironhorse8227
I miss this dudes music. Sony did him dirty.
@casey4602
Definitely can hear the Stevie Wonder influence in Glenn Lewis style, especially in song Don't You Forget It
@antoniosingletary2865
Checkout his Apollo performance! Just enough for the city mix! Crazy!
@stephaniemitchell3682

@theironhorse8227
Sierra Bellamy sony did him dirty.
@Fawe21
One thing about this industry it can chew you up and spit you out not in pieces but as a whole. Unfortunately, music like this becomes expendable and cast to the side. But you can always keep it relevant for you.
@23gifted1
WHAT AN ALBUM, FABULOUS.
