Diamond Rio: One More Day Meaning

Song Released: 2000

One More Day Lyrics

Last night I had a crazy dream
A wish was granted just for me
It could be for anything
I didnt ask for money
Or a mansion in malibu
I simply wished, for one more day with you

Chorus

One more day
One more time
One more sunset, maybe...

   To me, this song is about what I would do if the person I loved, who died, came back to me for just one day--how I would cherish them, express my love, and never want to let them go. This song reminds us to appreciate the moments, days, even years with loved ones--because when they are gone, we would wish for "just one more day." I find this song very powerful, and written with great musicality.

   This is me and my husband's song. For us, it had significant meaning because we were long distance loves and we only got to see each other a few days per month and we were always wishing for just one more day together before one of us had to fly home. This song can be interpreted in many different ways. I always think of our early courting days when we talked every night on the phone and waited for those short visits together.

   I believe that the song is about missed love not lost love... it's about someone who now knows that he had the one true love of his life and didn't realize it at the time... he walked away from that relationship but has never forgotten her... after years of being apart he now understands what walked away from... the song is about wishing he could be reunited with the love he left... the circumstances of their lives (perhaps one or both in committed relationships now) probably prohibit them from reuniting.

   I believe the song means that the person has a loved one whose passed and that they are wishing for just one more day with that family member.

   This song is about how he had a dream where he could wish for anything he wanted and in an ideal world, if he truly could have a wish like this the only thing he would wish for would be one more day, one more night, one more sunset and he would be satisfied. However the ironic thing is towards the end of the song he begins to realize that being satisfied is not really what he would be. If he had wished for one more day with her then that one more day would keep him wishing still for yet another day. So the cycle never ends because no matter how many one more days he gets, he loves and misses her so much he will still always wish for one more day with her.

    It's about a man that wished for one more day with the woman he loves.
