One Day (demo 1968) Songtext
von Genesis

Don′t get me wrong
I think I'm in love
But the feeling in the word is more
Than your crystal eyes will ever see in me

Don′t get me wrong
Open your eyes
Although I cannot show my heart
I'll watch and hope while you are near to me

One day I'll capture you, and call you to my side
One day I′ll take you from the boredom of our lives
One day we′ll fly away to the kingdom of my dreams
One day I'll find myself, and wrap it in my love for you


Birds of the sky
May I borrow your wings?
Very soon I′ll ask my love to travel with me to the world outside
Cherry trees, may I borrow your bloom?
Very soon I'll ask my love to come inside the nest I′ll build alone

One day I'll capture you and call you to my side
One day I′ll take you from the boredom of our lives
One day we'll fly away to the kingdom of my dreams
One day I'll find myself and wrap it in my love for you

Animal friends
Help me decide
When should I ask my love to leave?
I′ll beg of you that she′ll say yes to me
Breathe in deep
Now is the time
She looks at me and gently smiles
As if she knew I'd ask her all the time

One day I′ll capture you and call you to my side
One day I'll take you from the boredom of our lives
One day we′ll fly away to the kingdom of my dreams
One day I'll find myself and wrap it in my love for you
