[Verse 1]
All the kings and queens in the bible
They could not turn back time
So what chance have I of a miracle
In this life of mine?

[Chorus]
I only want one day
To unsay the things I said
Undo the thing I did
24 little hours
Oh God, please wipe them all away
And I promise I will change
If could start today again

[Verse 2]
I know I'm not the "milk and honey" kind
Today I proved it true
But when the red mist falls around my eyes
I know not what I do

[Chorus]
Please give me back today
I won't say the things I said
Or do the thing I did
Every minute, every hour
The replay's just the same
And I can't stand the shame
Oh, let me start today again
[Interlude]

[Chorus]
I only want one day
One lousy day, that's all
Of every day that's been before
Since time began
I know my prayer's in vain
So for a second, I'll pretend
That I can start today again
