I see the light has left your eyes, my friend, and your smile looks so tired to me,
Did you lose sight of your simple faith and start thinking that you can't be free?
As long as there's a God in heaven, well, that's not the way it has to be.

Oh, don't be sad one more day,
Don't be sad one more day,
Love is here...here to stay,
Don't be sad one more day.

Now we all cry so many useless tears over heartache we can't forget,
And it's a crime to waste our precious time shackled by those old regrets,
Yesterday is gone forever and tomorrow hasn't happened yet.

No, no, don't be sad one more day,
Don't be sad one more day,
Love is here...here to stay,
Don't be sad one more day.

Don't be sad one more day,
Don't be sad,
Don't be sad,
Don't be sad one more day,
Don't be sad,
Don't be sad.

Do you recall when we were barefoot boys and the oak tree was so grand and high?
We climbed up to the very top 'cause we wanted to touch the sky,
I still believe we're meant to do that, you've just got to have the faith to try, try.

Don't be sad one more day,
Don't be sad one more day,
Love is here...here to stay,
Don't be sad,
No, no, don't be sad one more day,
Don't be sad one more day,
Love is here...here to stay,
Don't be sad one more day.

Don't be sad,
Don't be sad one more day,
Don't be sad one more day,
One more day,
Don't be sad,
Don't be sad.
