I met a girl that I dreamed about for years

Dreamed I'd have no fears, a place to stay

Believe me when I say she had some plans for me

But all the plans she had for me will never be



One day in my life

One day in my life

One day I won't be coming home to you

One day in my life



She had some things for sure that she would want of me

And all the things she wants of me can never be

And as for me I never ask more than I need

But one day, I will ask to be free



One day in my life

One day in my life

One day I won't be coming home to you

One day in my life



She reminds me of the things I couldn't be

Or if I could, it just would not be me

Don't get me wrong it's part of life, it's just a game

They call it Kooties maybe Twister, roll away

Please, please where did he go? Why did he leave?

She said sometimes I'm just a little hard to please

If you see me on the corner I am free

One foot on the bus and off the trapoline



One day in my life

One day in my life

One day I won't be coming home to you

One day in my life

One day in my life
