# Just One More [Intro] Yeah I know I can’t bargain with the sky But I’m asking anyway Just one more Please [Verse 1] I can feel the room getting quieter Like the world knows I’m leaving soon Everybody talks in whispers Like their words might break in two I see faces by the bedside Trying hard to look brave But I know that kind of trembling I can hear what they don’t say I ain’t scared of the darkness I ain’t scared of the door I just hate that I’m not ready To hold them anymore There’s a hand wrapped around my fingers There’s a tear on someone’s sleeve And I’m trying to memorize it Before I have to leave [Pre-Chorus] I don’t need forever I know that’s not mine But if heaven’s taking names tonight Could it pass me one more time? [Chorus] Give me one more day One more sunrise through the blinds One more cup of coffee cooling While they laugh and waste my time One more “I love you” One more chance to say it right One more ordinary moment That I used to let slip by I know I can’t stay I know life don’t work that way But I’m down here on my knees Begging God for one more day [Verse 2] I want to hear the screen door closing Hear the dogs bark down the hall Hear somebody in the kitchen Saying, “Come eat before it’s cold” I want to sit there at the table And pretend I’m not afraid Let them tell me all their stories Like we’ve still got time to waste I want to see my loved ones smiling Without sorrow in their eyes Want to hold them like the first time And not like the last goodbye I want to say, “I’m sorry” For the anger and the pride For every time I made them wonder If I knew they were my life [Pre-Chorus] I don’t need a miracle I know the debt gets paid But if mercy’s still listening Let it hear me when I say [Chorus] Give me one more day One more sunrise through the blinds One more cup of coffee cooling While they laugh and waste my time One more “I love you” One more chance to say it right One more ordinary moment That I used to let slip by I know I can’t stay I know life don’t work that way But I’m down here on my knees Begging God for one more day [Bridge] Tell my girl I saw her first breath Tell her she was worth the pain Tell her every time she smiled It put sunlight in my veins Tell my love I never meant To make her carry all my storms Tell her she was home to me When I didn’t feel at home Tell my people I was broken But I loved them through the cracks And if I could reach tomorrow I would spend it giving back I don’t want gold streets yet I don’t want angel wings I just want one more evening With the ones who made life mean [Verse 3] So if this is my last hour Let me leave it soft and true No pretending I was perfect No hiding what I knew I was just a man who stumbled I was just a heart that tried I was scared and I was stubborn But I loved them with my life And if I have to cross that river If the light is calling me Let my voice stay in the doorway Where their memories can reach Let them feel me in the quiet When the house gets still at night Not as pain that keeps on hurting But as love that left a light [Final Chorus] Give me one more day One more sunrise through the blinds One more cup of coffee cooling While they laugh and waste my time One more “I love you” One more chance to say it right One more ordinary moment That I used to let slip by But if I can’t stay If I have to go today Let them know they were the reason I kept fighting all the way I know I can’t stay I know life don’t work that way But my soul is still here reaching Begging God for one more day [Outro] Yeah Just one more One more laugh One more touch One more day And if I don’t get it Tell them I loved them enough To ask
