Fighting Gravity - One Day lyrics

(Lyrics, Music: Leitch, Triano, Peterson)

A little child with larger eyes making faces from the clouds above

So simple in so many different ways

Mom and dad would fix his hair before he went outside to play

The tightest grip on every word they say

(Refrain)

One day I will come for you so you won't be alone

One day I will come for you

One day I will come for you so you won't be alone

One day I will come for you

Walking home from school one day, he jumps the cracks, the backs he

Saves

Will always take the time to understand the way he wears his clothes

The crazy things he thinks he knows

The astronaut, the football star

All his muddy friends

(Refrain)

Now his eyes have changed

So long to this little one

And all the things that little ones will do

Older now, my friends all gone, I never thought I'd ever end up

Missing all the times we used to share

Suffering is not discerned, neither has love been learned

Can you take me back to younger days?

(Refrain)
