Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Saw the wanderin' eye inside my heart
Shouts and battle cries from every part
I can see those tears, every one is true
When the door appears I'll go right through
Ooh
[Verse 2]
In a small dark room, where I will wait
Face to face I find, I contemplate
Even though a man is made of clay
Everything can change, that one fine...
[Verse 3]
One fine day
One fine day
[Verse 4]
Then before my eyes, is standing still
I beheld it there, a city on a hill
I complete my tasks, one by one
I remove my masks, when I am done
[Verse 5]
Then a piece of mind, fell over me
In these troubled times, we still can see
We can use the stars to guide the way
It is not that far, that one fine...
[Verse 6]
One fine day
One fine day
One fine day
