One More Day
Embracing Life's Fragility: Seeking One More Day
Lyrics
Well I had a day off in Paris
Reflecting on having a day off in Paris
And I was just killing time
Passing time without any particular purpose
I was talking to a French man
Engaging in conversation with a French man
And he was drinking from my wine
Sharing a drink with the French man
He sad when I get up in the morning
Expressing gratitude to God for waking up each morning
I thank god for letting me stay
Thanking God for the opportunity to live another day
And when I go to sleep at night
Requesting for one more day before going to sleep
I beg him for one more day
Pleading for an additional day before bedtime
One more day one more day
Emphasizing the desire for an extra day
One more day one more day
-Well I can hear the bell of age call
Sensing the approach of old age
And I pray to my lord for one more day that's all
Seeking a single day more from the higher power
One more day one more day
Reiterating the wish for an additional day
One more day one more day
-Well I can hear the bell of age call
Perceiving the signs of aging
And I pray to my lord for one more day that's all
Asking for just one more day from the divine
Well he said friend i´ll soon be eighty
Listening to an older person sharing experiences
And I had my life
Acknowledging a full life but anticipating more
But still im waiting for some things
Desiring clarity and new experiences
To come and clear my eyes
-There are so many things
Listing unfulfilled desires
That I still wanna do
Expressing a wish for things still to be done
So before I go to bed at night
Pleading for another day before bedtime
I beg him for tomorrow too
Requesting another day for future endeavors
One more day one more day
Repeating the plea for an additional day
One more day one more day
-Well I can hear the bell of age call
Noticing the signs of aging yet again
And I pray to my lord for one more day that's all
Asking for just one more day from the divine
One more day one more day
Insisting on the desire for an extra day
One more day one more day
-Well I can hear the bell of age call
Recognizing the approaching old age once more
And I pray to my lord for one more day that's all
Praying for one more day from the higher power
