One Day lyrics

One day,

The fields will be greener,

One day,

The skies will be bluer,

One day,

The rivers will be bright,

Silver ribbons,

Running round the hills:

Quiet hills; you'll see.

One day,

The rains will be softer,

One day,

The winds will be sweeter,

Sweeter than springtime

And a whisper of lilac,

Apple, pine and pear

Will fill the air and...

One day,

A child full of wonder,

Won't fear

The dark sound of thunder.

No dreams of danger,

When a soldier's a stranger,

From a distant time,

Distant world.

On the morning,

You stand with tomorrow,

Safe in your hand...

That will be the day.
