MUSIC and the SOUL

music of rick calderone, steve parrish, michele statt

one more day

I feel I’m floating along

But I have no space

I know the easier way is wrong

But I’ve gotta get out of this place

 

There’s a branch in the road ahead

Which way will I choose?

I think I’m better off instead

To sit right here and lose

If I pick the wrong way I’m dead

To that I should be used

At least you’d be out of my head

 

If I could stay on one more day

I’d make a promise for to wait

I’d like to hear you once more say…

Oh God I’m sorry but I’ve paid

 

Here’s a last request

Just keep your heart open

I know that better may be best

At least that’s what I’m hoping

 

The chances we take alone

Still touch and haunt the hearts

and souls of those we have known

I must take this fault as my own

That here I’m king though I’m so lonely

 on this throne 

 

If I could stay on one more day

I’d make a promise for to wait

I’d like to hear you once more say…

Oh God I’m sorry but I’ve paid

(Oh God I’m sorry I betrayed)

(Oh God I’m sorry I forgave)

 

thoughts

this is one of those songs that has different meanings every time we sing it, but plays with significance each run...

i like it as much now as when we first did it and i think the dynamic vocal interweaves are the best we did in our early songs
