One Day You Will

Deborah Cox · One Wish

You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now

One day you will
Be walking down the street
And you'll see someone
And she will look a lot like me
And you'll think about someone you've left behind
And it will make you cry

One day you will
Be starting off your day
And you'll look inside your coffee cup and see my face
And you're realize the sad mistakes you've made
And it will be too late

One day you'll wonder why you ever said goodbye
And you will wish your was still right her right by my side
But I won't be around, no
You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now
But one day you will

Never find a love like what we had
Never find some one like me who cared
Through the tears on day you'll see
That the one you need is me
You'll want me back again
You'll want me back again
One day you will

Be driving in your car
And you're gonna hear a song that's gonna break your heart
And you'll wish you said those words you didn't say
And it will be too late

One day you're wonder why you ever said goodbye
And you will wish you were still right here right by my side
But I won't be around, oh no no no
You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now

One day you will
Be walking down the street
And you'll see someone
And she will look a lot like me
And you'll think about someone you left behind
And it will make you cry

You don't miss me now
You just don't miss me now
You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now
But one day you will
One day you will
One day you will
