“One Day Too Late” is a song that about regret and the importance of living in the present. The lyrics describe the feeling of missed opportunities and the desire to turn back time to make different choices.
[Verse 1]
Tick tock, hear the clock count down
Wish the minute hand could be rewound
So much to do and so much I need to say
Will tomorrow be too late?
Feel the moment slip into the past
Like sand through an hourglass
In the madness I guess I just forget
To do all the things I said
[Pre-Chorus]
Time passes by
Never thought I'd wind up
One step behind
Now I've made my mind up
[Chorus]
Today I'm gonna try a little harder!
Gonna make every minute last longer!
Gonna learn to forgive and forget
'Cause we don't have long
Gonna make the most of it!
(Today!)
Today I'm going to love my enemies
(Today!)
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
'Cause tomorrow could be one day too late
One day too late
One day too late
[Verse 2]
Tick tock, hear my life pass by
I can't erase, and I can't rewind
Of all the things I regret the most I do
Wish I'd spent more time with you
Here's my chance for a new beginning
I saved the best for a better ending
In the end I'll make it up to you, you'll see
You'll get the very best of me
[Pre-Chorus]
Time passes by
Never thought I'd wind up
One step behind
Now I've made my mind up
[Chorus]
Today I'm gonna try a little harder!
Gonna make every minute last longer!
Gonna learn to forgive and forget
'Cause we don't have long
Gonna make the most of it!
(Today!)
Today I'm going to love my enemies
(Today!)
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
'Cause tomorrow could be one day too late
[Bridge]
Your time is runnin' out
You're never gonna get it back
So make the most of every moment
Stop saving your best for last!
[Chorus]
(Today!)
Today I'm gonna try a little harder!
(Today!)
Gonna make every minute last longer!
Gonna learn to forgive and forget
'Cause we don't have long
Gonna make the most of it!
(Today!)
Today I'm going to love my enemies
(Today!)
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
'Cause tomorrow could be one day too late!
[Outro]
One day too late
One day too late
One day too late
One day too late
