"The Day" lyrics - RAHSAAN PATTERSON
I've been
Bad
Been good
And I've done things
I'd never thought I do
I've been
Hurt
Been torn
Been on my knees begging for more
[Bridge:]
But what I know is that I've
Never been the kinda man
Without some kind of plan
'Cause I believe that in due time
Our souls will be in touch
And our hearts will open up
[Chorus:]
I'm living for the day when everybody lives for love (mm, mm)
Here waiting on the day when everyone just frees up
I'm living for the day when everybody can give love (oy)
Leaving behind the days when we didn't care enough (no)
I've been
Weak
Been bold (been bold,been bold)
Heard someone say I didn't fit the mold (oh, no, I didn't fit it)
I've been lost
Been found (been found, been found)
Been through hell but now I'm
Heaven bound
[Bridge:]
'Cause what I know is that I've
Got the strength to carry on
Though the road ahead is long
I believe that in due time
Our souls will be in touch (souls in touch)
And our hearts will open up (and our hearts will open up and up, I)
[Chorus:]
I'm living for the day when everybody lives for love
(When everybody lives for love)
Here waiting on the day when everyone just frees up
(When everybody frees up, oh-oh!)
I'm living for the day when everybody can give love
(I'm living for the day, baby)
Leaving behind the days when we didn't care enough (mm)
[Bridge:]
I'm waiting for you (I've been waiting)
Been waiting for you (waiting, waiting)
Let your love come through (sure 'nough waiting)
Been waiting for you (I'm waiting)
Waiting for you (waiting, waiting)
What you gonna do? (sure 'nough waiting)
Let your love come through
Waiting for
You
Yeah
I
Waiting for
You
I
Waiting for
You, baby
You, baby
[Instrumental break]
When will men care enough?
[Chorus:]
I'm living for the day when everybody lives for love
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I)
Here waiting on the day when everyone just frees up
(Living for the day, baby)
I'm living for the day when everybody can give love (said I)
Leaving behind the days (say "yeah")
I'm living for the day when everybody lives for love
(Said I want you to give love)
Here waiting on the day when everyone just frees up
I'm living for the day when everybody can give love
Leaving behind the days (I, oh, I, I, I, I)
I'm living for the day when everybody lives for love (everybody)
Here waiting on the day when everyone just frees up
(For love, for love, for love)
I'm living for the day when everybody can give love
(Everybody live for love)
Leaving behind the days (for love, givin' love, givin' love, yeah)
Get that?
