One More Night
The Medicine Lyrics

She'd snuggle up and talk to me
My daughter would cuddle close and have conversations with me

Each night as I watched TV
This would happen every evening while I watched television

I'd teasingly call her chatterbox
I playfully referred to her as someone who talks a lot

Then one night she said don't be scared
But one night, she told me not to be afraid

I see an angel on the stairs
She told me she saw an angel standing on the staircase

Daddy can you hear the angel talk
She asked if I could hear the angel speak as well

One more year of lollipops
We only have one more year of enjoying lollipops together

Ice cream cones and soda pop
And also one more year of indulging in ice cream cones and soda pop

One more year of daddy's little girl
This is the remaining time for me to cherish my daughter as my little girl

One more year of crackerjacks, bubblegum
We also have one more year of enjoying treats like crackerjacks and bubblegum

And sugar smacks
And of course, sugar smacks as well

I took her in my arms upstairs
I held her in my embrace and we went upstairs

And as she said her night time prayers
While she prayed before sleeping

I felt a fever burning in her head
I sensed a fever heating up her head

She gave thanks for mom and me
During her prayer, she expressed gratitude for her mother and me

And said I heard my angel speak
She told me that she heard her angel communicating

Daddy this is what my angel said
She informed me that this is what her angel had conveyed

Her faith grew strong her body weak
Her faith became stronger while her physical strength diminished

And soon my frightened eyes could see
Gradually, I could see with fear in my eyes

There was nothing on earth that I could do
I realized that there was nothing I could do on Earth

And one year later to the day in her sleep
One year later on the exact same day, she passed away peacefully

She slipped away and I knew what she had said and heard was true
She peacefully left this world, confirming that what she had told me was true

One more year of lollipops ice cream cones
We only have one more year left to enjoy lollipops and ice cream cones

And soda pop one more year of daddy's little girl
Also, just one more year remaining for me to cherish her as my little girl

One more year of crackerjacks bubblegum and Sugar smacks
We also have one final year of indulging in crackerjacks, bubblegum, and sugar smacks

One more year of daddy's little girl
This is the last year where she will be my little girl

One more year of daddy's little girl
Again, just one more year left to have her as my little girl
