One Day - Lyrics - Uriah Heep

The character is notable for his cloying humility, obsequiousness, and insincerity, making frequent references to his own "'humbleness". His name has become synonymous with being a yes man. He is the central antagonist of the latter part of the book.

One day ... Didn't I tell ya Everything was gonna be alright I never doubted It was just a matter of time And though I've travelled Across the desert of despair I know I'll get there one day How times have changed I better re-arrange it everything But it can't change the love I bring When I get back home to you I am the same It's just a game that I chose to play But remember I can lose As fast as I won one day I still remember the hole in the wall Where we all sat though You said we'd fall The dusty yard and The broken down barn Where you and me Used to share a yarn But it's gone now But didn't I tell ya That everything was Gonna be alright I never doubted It was just a matter of time Though I've travelled Across the desert of despair I know I'll get there one day One day ... I'll get there one day
