Just For A Day
Winans Phase 2 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It brings a smile to my face
And so I close my eyes to suddenly see
Memories of my sweetest days, sweetest days
But I never said thank you; I never really tried
And when I think about it, I just want to cry
There are so many things that I want to say
I would do anything to see you
[Chorus]
Just for a day's hoop
Just for a day's hoop
I know I love you, I tell myself
I just didn't know how to say it
But I wonder if you hear me when I pray at night
Sometimes I forget that you're by my side
Did you know that you were the reason I live my life
Lord, I would do anything to see you
[Chorus]
Just for a day, just for a day, just for a day
Anything, anything
The song "Just For A Day" by Winans Phase 2 is a powerful and heartfelt tribute to someone who has had a profound impact on the singer's life. As the lyrics suggest, the singer reflects on all of the things that this person has done for them and realizes that they have never truly expressed their gratitude. The memories of their sweetest days with this person come flooding back, and the singer is overwhelmed with emotion. They wish they could go back in time for just one day to show this person how much they mean to them and to properly express their love and appreciation.
Although the song is rooted in a sense of regret and missed opportunities, there is also a deep sense of faith and hope that runs throughout. The singer acknowledges that they have not always been the best at expressing themselves, but they trust that this person is always by their side, listening and supporting them. Even in their moments of forgetfulness and doubt, they believe that this person is the reason they are able to live their life to the fullest.
Overall, "Just For A Day" is a beautiful and poignant reminder of the importance of showing love and gratitude to those who matter most to us. It encourages listeners to take a step back from their busy lives and appreciate the people who have shaped them into the person they are today.
