It was magical, beautiful   I didn't know how it all began   One day, 24 hours   It didn't turn out how I planned      'Cause I did not expect to feel the way   The way I do from a single day   And both of us we knew we could not stay   You had yours, I had mine, separate lives   But at least we had the night      I was in love for a day   In a way can't explain   Why you went away   It's a shame you didn't stay with me      Unforgettable, incredible   I didn't know how to handle it   I was unprepared, maybe a little scared   Of something I may never get      I was never one to believe   Love at first sight could get to me   And maybe if these feelings stay the same   I'll be with you again someday   But baby either way      I was in love for a day   In a way can't explain   Why you went away   It's a shame you didn't stay with me      And maybe someday we will be connected   It was so powerful, I can't believe it's over yet   The way you play back in my mind   Makes it hard to forget you, you, you      I know you have your life and I've got mine   And someday maybe we'll re collide   But until then, baby I know, I know      I was in love for a day   In a way can't explain   Why you went away   It's a shame you didn't stay with me      With me, with me, with me, with me   If you hear me, if you hear me holler   With me, with me, with me   If you hear me, if you hear me holler      In a way can't explain   Why you went away   It's a shame you didn't stay with me   With me, with me, with me, with me, with me
