When we were young we used to say |
| Things would be different |
| One fine day |
| The walls would crumble |
| Nations sing as one |
| We live in hope |
| Cause so far it hasn't come |
Listening to the pouring rain |
| Waiting for the world to change |
| Beginning to wonder if we'll wait in vain |
| For one fine day |
Oh, how years change |
| The things for which we strive |
| A better world, or just a quiet life |
| What seemed so simple |
| Is still so far away |
| Don't hold you breath waiting |
| For one fine day |
Listenin' to the pouring rain |
| Waiting for the world to change |
| Beginning to wonder if we'll wait in vain |
| For one fine day |
Life is strange |
| It can seem you're high and dry |
| Turn around |
| You find there's nothing in this world you recognise |
| Did we fall asleep babe? |
| Dreaming that dream babe? |
Listening to the pouring rain |
| Did we fall asleep babe? |
| Dreaming that dream babe? |
| One fine day |
