One Day
Dreams Unveiled: Eric Clapton's Hopeful Anthem
Lyrics
One day
Expressing hope for a future moment
I believe
Believing in the possibility of a positive outcome
One day
Reiterating the anticipation of a future event
I can see
Envisioning a future where things become clear
Baby
Endearment term used, possibly referring to a loved one
Out in the country, maybe down by the sea
Imagining a scenario in the countryside or by the sea
Will I wake up one morning and find that I've been set free
Questioning the possibility of waking up liberated
One day
Repetition of the desire for a specific day to come
One day
Repeating the hopeful anticipation
Some day
Referring to an unspecified future moment
I can't say how
Uncertain about the method or manner of reaching that future
Some day
Repeating the idea of an eventual occurrence
But I don't know now
Expressing current uncertainty about the future
Maybe tomorrow when I'm old and gray
Anticipating a future where desires are fulfilled in old age
What I ever wanted will finally come my way
Hoping for the realization of long-held desires
One day
Repeating the anticipation of a specific day
One day
Reiterating the hope for a particular day to arrive
One day
Re-emphasizing the expectation of a future event
This dream will come true
Expressing confidence that a dream will be realized
One day
Suggesting the possibility of shared success
Maybe you will too
Encouraging the idea that the listener's dreams may also come true
Maybe flying high, maybe close to the ground
Imagining different scenarios, either soaring or grounded
I will hear your voice and I'll know I've been found
Anticipating a moment of recognition through a voice
Hold me tight, baby make me stay
Desiring closeness and connection
I can hear every word you've been trying to say
Claiming the ability to understand the unspoken
One day
Reiteration of the hope for a specific day to come
One day
Repeating the anticipation of a future moment
