One Day - Ira May

If I could have you for one day

I’d want you to know all of me

If I could have you for one day

I’d be blessed for this day

At first I want you to see where I grew up

And tell you about the fears of a child

The beauty and the colours in my mind

Hopes and the dreams I used to have

Songs I listend to when I went to bed

The world of a little girl red haired

And full of love

The love of the parents which made me grow

Which makes me whole

Brothers and a sister spinning all around

My aunts and my uncles sitting by the fire

I’m trying to compare

But there’s nothing to compare in this whole wide world

If I could have you for one day

I’d like to share my secrets and wanna know yours

If I could have you for one day

I’d tell you all about my love

And where it came from

I’d show you every place that I call home

The tree upon the hill underneath the sun

Things that make me scared, meals that I prepared

The wonder of the nature and the pulse of my nature

People that I love, times I felt alone

Moments that I cried, times when I was strong

And when I’m weak, you’ll hold me in your arms

And I can let it go

If I could have you for one day

I’d tell you everything that is on my mind

If I could have you for one day

I’d tell you what you mean to me

In one day I’d have to give you every part of me

I’d borrow your heart and hold it next to me

There would be no one else in a moment so endlessly

I’d feel you everywhere making love to me

I’d confess that you are in everything I see

Your voice calms me down

When you’re near I am found

Where else can I be?

If I could have you for one day

It would be the day burned into my heart

If I could have you for one day

I’d pray for the next life to nd you again
