One Day

(album: KT Tunstall's Acoustic Extravaganza - 2006)

I look up and the hills seem far away
They still see me more than you
And on my back I see these clouds above
They still love me more than you

And I know I don't have to wait for words
I can walk away and listen to the birds
Listen to the birds
They don't sing the things I want to hear
They don't change, they stay the same
Lonely, yeah yeah yeah

I would dearly love to run away
From your shadow
For just one day
'Cause I would dearly love to run away
From your shadow
For just one day

And I don't ever want to steal your time
'Cause you seem fine
But I feel blue
I don't want to say the things I do
'Cause I know I feel it more than you

And I know I don't have to wait for words
I can walk away and listen to the birds
Listen to the birds
'Cause they don't sing the things I want to hear
They don't change, they stay the same
Lonely, yeah yeah yeah

I would dearly love to run away
From your shadow
For just one day
Oh and I would dearly love to run away
From your shadow
For just one, just one, just one day

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Well I know I don't want to wait for you
I could turn around and find somebody new, find somebody new, yeah
Someone that says the things I need to hear
Doesn't change, someone who stays the same
When I need, yeah

Well I would dearly love to run away
From your shadow
For just one day
'Cause I would dearly love to run away
From your shadow
For just one day, oh oh yeah
