Lyrics

One Day

Knifing my way through a diamond mine

Dragging those rocks

From seabed to shoreline

Rubies and sapphires on Emerald bay

Floating across the milky way

One day... one day...

Prospecting gold and staking my claim

But the only thing I treasure is hearing your name

Most everyone dreams diamonds and furs

I dream of love and baby it's yours

One day... one day...

One day you'll realise

You'll see it in her eyes

No room for alibis - one day... one day...

One day you'll realise

Feel me materialise

You'll see you're just a fool to leave me

One day... one day

One day... one day

One day... one day

One day

They say that your life is an open book

Well I just wrote a chapter so take a look

Can't blame it on fate or destiny

Now that your book... it features me

One day... one day...

One day you'll realise

You'll see it on her eyes

No room for alibis - one day... one day...

One day you'll realise

Feel me materialise

You'll see you're just a fool to leave me

One day... one day

One day... one day

One day... one day

One day soon baby

Hardly a day goes by without me thinking of you

No matter how hard I try you can't escape a dream

Living my life - in the lap of luxury

Living my life - confuse me... confuse me baby

One day you'll realise

I'll see it in your eyes

No room for compromise - one day... one day...

One day you'll realise

Feel me materialise

You'll see you're just a fool to leave me

My baby

My darlin'

My baby

You can't shake a dream - how I wish that you could

One day you're mine get that understood

Until then each night I shall pray

For a love that lasts forever and...

One day... one day...

One day... one day

One day... one day

One day... one day
