One Day In Your Life
Michael Jackson · Anthology [1990]
You'll remember a place
Someone touching your face
You'll come back and you'll look around, you'll...
One day in your life
You'll remember the love you found here
You'll remember me somehow
Though you don't need me now
I will stay in your heart
And when things fall apart
You'll remember one day...
One day in your life
When you find that you're always waiting
For a love we used to share
Just call my name, and I'll be there
You'll remember me somehow
Though you don't need me now
I will stay in your heart
And when things fall apart
You'll remember one day...
One day in your life
When you find that you're always lonely
For a love we used to share
Just call my name, and I'll be there
