One More Day
Smith & McClennan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let's turn off our phones tonight
And rely on the stars
We've been so lost lately
We forgot who we are
But I got everything I need, baby
In the palms of your touch
In a world of dark distractions
It can all get too much

So let's sit by an English river
'Til the water runs dry
Can we light a cigarette
And talk about days gone by?
We're neither saints or sinners
So leave your history behind
Let's grab a bottle and take it one day at a time
Take it one day at a time

I know you're feeling weighed down tonight
And you can't find the breaks
Every day is too long for you
You were sworn to your fate
But we got everything we need, baby
In the memories we make
In a world of reinventions
It's never too late

So let's sit by an English river
'Til the water runs dry
Can we light a cigarette
And talk about days gone by?
We're neither saints or sinners
So leave your history behind
Let's grab a bottle and take it one day at a time
Take it one day at a time

So let's sit by an English river
'Til the water runs dry
There is nothing that we've done wrong
That can't be made right
We're neither saints or sinners
So leave your history behind
Let's grab a bottle and take it




Grab a bottle and take it
Grab a bottle and take it one day at a time

We've been so lost lately

In the palms of your touch
Your touch brings me comfort and fulfillment

It can become overwhelming and suffocating

Until we have spent enough time reflecting and finding solace

There is nothing irreparable in our past

The lack of violence is fantastic. Why would anybody want to watch it.

@awdeveau

@@bighands69 that's why people click on the video. We expect to see a man kill his friend with 1 punch! I was pretty let down.
