Dido - For One Day Lyrics

If I had the chance for just one day with you
One day release from here and all that you go through
Well I'd get you dressed and I'd get you out
And I know you'd be fine as soon as we broke out

So please
Just for one day I wouldn't talk for you
You'd tell me what to say
You'd show me what to do

And please
Just for one day I'd see you walk again
And we'd go hand in hand
So far we can't go back

I'd do anything I could do for this one more day with you
Away from all these wires and tubes they've stuck on you
And I would buy you an early beer
We'd watch the game and we'd talk of old friends
And of work and heartbreak
You'd ask me who you'd need to kill to make it okay again
But laughing about it'd make it small anyway

So please
Just for one day
I wouldn't guess for you
You'd tell me what you felt and what you want to do

And please
Just for one day
I wouldn't hide from you
You wouldn't see me try keep all of you from you

So please
Just for one day I wouldn't talk for you
You'd tell me what to say
You'd show me what to do

And please
Just for one day I'd see you walk again
And we'd go hand in hand
So far we can't go back

I won't cry for you
So please
Just for one day
'Cause I will wait for you
I wouldn't talk to you

I have this day with you
And I won't cry for you
And I won't cry for you
And I won't cry for you
