Lyrics One Day More - Les Misérables - Original London Cast

One day more
Another day, another destiny
This never ending road to Calvary
These men who seem to know my crime
Will surely come a second time
One day more

I did not live until today
How can I live when we are parted?
(One day more)
Tomorrow you'll be worlds away
And yet with you my world has started

One more day all on my own
(Will we ever meet again?)
One more day with him not caring
(I was born to be with you!)
What a life I might have known
(And I swear I will be true!)
But he never saw me there

One more day before the storm!
(Do I follow where she goes?)
At the barricades of Freedom
(Shall I join my brothers there?)
When our ranks begin to form
(Do I stay and do I dare?)
Will you take your place with me?

The time is now!
The day is here!
One day more!

One day more till revolution
We will nip it in the bud!
We'll be ready for these schoolboys
They will wet themselves with blood!
(One day more)

Watch 'em run amuck
Catch 'em as they fall
Never know your luck
When there's a free for all
Here a little dip
There a little touch
Most of them are goners
So they won't miss much

One day to a new beginning
(Raise the flag of freedom high!)
Every man will be a king
(Every man will be a king)
There's a new world for the winning
(There's a new world to be won)
Do you hear the people sing?

My place is here
I fight with you!
One day more!

I did not live until today
(I will join these people's heroes)
(I will follow where they go)
(One more day all on my own!)
How can I live when we are parted?
(I will learn their little secrets)
(I will know the things they know)
One day more!

Tomorrow you'll be worlds away
(Watch 'em run amuck)
(Catch 'em as they fall)
(Never know your luck)
(When there's a free-for-all!)
(What a life I might have known!)
And yet with you my world has started
Tomorrow we'll be far away!
Tomorrow is the judgement day!

Tomorrow we'll discover
What our God in Heaven has in store!

One more dawn
One more day
One day more!
