John Elefante Album: Corridors Track: Not Just Any Other Day
Not Just Any Other Day Lyrics
Just another early morning as the sun began to rise Like a million other mornings just the same The people of the town began their ordinary lives Unsuspecting of a world about to change
This was not just any other day, no Not just any other day
Little did they know that on the other side of town The sin of all humanity would bleed beneath a crown Of a man whose only blame was being born a King
CHORUS: And I wish that I could have felt that rain on me I wish that I could have felt that rain I would have looked into Your dying eyes and Stared at You in disbelief and thought, "Is this what You've been telling me 2000 years?"
It was business as usual, nothing different at all As dusk would cast a shadow and the night began to fall But no one stopped to notice that before this day would end The sick and the afflicted needn't ever hurt again
Not just any other day It was not just any other day
As a small crowd gathered just beneath the dying Son The fulfillment of a promise had been done
And I wish that I could have felt that rain on me I wish that I could have felt that rain I would have heard with my own ears As you shouted out in fear and said, "Father why have You forsaken Me?"
