One Day More! Songtext
von Claude‐Michel Schönberg

One day more!
Another day, another destiny
This never-ending road to Calvary
These men who seem to know my crime
Will surely come a second time
One day more!

I did not live until today
How can I live when we are parted?
One day more
Tomorrow you′ll be worlds away
And yet with you, my world has started!

One more day all on my own
Will we ever meet again?
One more day with him not caring
I was born to be with you
What a life I might have known
And I swear I will be true!
But he never saw me there!


One more day before the storm!
Do I follow where she goes?
At the barricades of freedom
Shall I join my brothers there?
When our ranks begin to form
Do I stay and do I dare?
Will you take your place with me?

The time is now, the day is here!

One day more!
One more day to revolution
We will nip it in the bud!
We'll be ready for these schoolboys
They will wet themselves with blood!

One day more!
Watch ′em run amuck
Catch 'em as they fall
Never know your luck
When there's a free-for-all
Here a little ′dip′
There a little 'touch′
Most of them are goners
So they won't miss much!


One day to a new beginning
Raise the flag of freedom high!
Every man will be a king
Every man will be a king
There′s a new world for the winning
There's a new world to be won
Do you hear the people sing?

My place is here, I fight with you!

One day more!
I will join these people′s heroes
I will follow where they go
I will learn their little secrets
I will know the things they know

One day more!
Watch them run amuck
Catch 'em as they fall
Never know your luck
When there's a free-for-all!
We′ll be ready for these schoolboys
Tomorrow we′ll be far away
Tomorrow is the judgement day

Tomorrow we'll discover
What our God in Heaven has in store!
One more dawn
One more day
One day more!
