One Sweet Day

Mariah Carey · The Ballads [2009]

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

Feeling and knowing you hear me

It keeps me alive

Alive



[Chorus:]

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

One sweet day

(picture a little scene from heaven)



Darling I never showed you

Assumed you'd always be there(always)

I took your presence for granted

But I always cared(but I always cared)

And I miss the love we shared



[Chorus]



Although the sun will never shine the same again

I'll always look to a brighter day

(yeah) Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep

You will always listen as I pray



[Chorus x2]



Sorry I never told you

All I wanted to say
