One Day

On Monday

I got a text from my wife

She wrote I need to talk to you

On the same day

I texted back what about?

Even though I already knew

That one day

My life changed for the better

Though it was hard to tell

One day

You'll be going up to Heaven

If you are patient in Hell

On Tuesday

My brother sat next to me

And gently tried to lift up my mood

He said

One day

You'll be dancing in the moonlight

You'll be over her for good

On Wednesday

A minute felt like seven

And I thought time would tell

If on Thursday

I'd be going up to heaven

I've been so patient in Hell

You believe or you don't

That all the things that you love

They can be gone in just

One day

On Friday

I met a girl named Bambi

She was cool and hazy

Made me feel so lazy

On a workday

So we kissed and we kissed

And I tried to write a list of all the things

I'll do to Bambi

On the next day

60 minutes felt like seven

And there was no way to tell

Why this one day

I went straight up to heaven

And it was hotter than hell

You believe or you don't

That all the sorrow you drag

It might be dead and gone

One day

What if on Sunday

You get tired of my dreams

And of all the times I seem

To be crazy and say things to you like

One day I'll become a firefighter

Then, maybe we'll be fighting too?

That one day

All the birds will look like ravens

Will you be able to tell

That it's doomsday

And I'll be falling down from Heaven

All the way back to Hell

You live or you die

You grieve or you lie

You believe or you don't

But all the things that you love

They can be gone in just

One day
