One Sweet Day Lyrics

Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
And now it's too late to hold you
Cause you've flown away
So far away

Never had I imagined
Living without your smile
Feelin, knowin' you hear me
It keeps me alive, alive

And I know you're shining
Down on me from heaven
Like so many friends
We've lost along the way
And I know eventually
We'll be together (together)
One sweet day

I'll wait patiently
To see you in heaven

Darlin' I never showed you (no no no)
Assumed you'd, always be there
And I, I took your presence for granted
But I always cared (I always cared)
And I miss the love we shared
And I know you're shining
Down on me from heaven
Like so many friends
We've lost along the way
And I know eventually
We'll be together (together)
One sweet day

Although the sun will
Never shine the same
I'll always look
To a brighter day

Yeah yeah and Lord I know
When I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen as I pray

And I know you're shining
Down on me from heaven
Like so many friends
We've lost along the way
And I know eventually
We'll be together (together)
One sweet day

And I know you're shining
Down on me from heaven
Like so many friends
We've lost along the way
And I know eventually
We'll be together (together)
One sweet day
Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
