One More Day
Lonestar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Last Night I had a crazy dream
Wish was granted just for me,
It could be for anything
I didn't ask for money, or a mansion in Malibu
I simply wished for one more day with you

One more day, One more time
One more sunset maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again; I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you

(Oh one more day)

First thing I'd do is pray for time to crawl
I'd unplug the telephone, and keep the TV off
I'd hold you every second, say a million I Love You's
Thats what I'd do, with one more day with you

One more day, One more time


One more sunset maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again; I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you

One more day, One more time
One more sunset maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again; I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still, for one more day....
Leave me wishing still, for one more day....
Leave me wishing still, for one more day....
With you





(Oh... One more day)

IF YOU REALLY MISS A LOVED ONE AND CAME HERE RAISE YOUR HAND

Last night I had a crazy dream

One more day, one more time
One more sunset maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still for one more day with you
One more day, one more time
One more sunset maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still for one more day
Leave me wishing still for one more day
Leave me wishing still for one more day with you
One more day (one more day)

On Friday my friend Amelia had a woodworking class with me in 7th grade…she looked at me in 7th period and asked sheepishly if I could do her homework as her family had a get together that Sunday and did not want a Zero-I happily accepted as I liked her secretly…during the weekend I helped her project and placed all plans in her little notebook she gave me on Sunday. I was excited to gain some “points” with her. On Monday she was not in class (had her in 3rd period also) there was an announcement in 4th period to please give a moment of silence for a student who who drowned in lake . My friend had died -Amelia. I clutched her homework tightly and began to cry. Students around me was like what is wrong? I am 56 years old and stil have her homework. I miss my friend today and sad she was taken away so soon. Today I am traumatized by water and drowning. Thanks for reading as this song gives me remembrance to such a beautiful person…

I lost my 23yr old son 2 yrs ago. This was the song I asked a friend to play and sing at his funeral. I listen to it alot, especially when I'm missing him the most. Love you Jacob! I will see you again son.
