Sorry I never told you All I wanted to say And now it's too late to hold you 'Cause you've flown away So far away Never had I imagined Living without your smile Feeling and knowing you hear me It keeps me alive Alive And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven Like so many friends we've lost along the way And I know eventually we'll be together One sweet day Darling, I never showed you Assumed you'd always be there I took your presence for granted But I always cared And I miss the love we shared And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven Like so many friends we've lost along the way And I know eventually we'll be together One sweet day Although the sun will never shine the same I'll always look to a brighter day Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep You will always listen as I pray And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven Like so many friends we've lost along the way And I know eventually we'll be together One sweet day And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven Like so many friends we've lost along the way And I know eventually we'll be together One sweet day Sorry I never told you All I wanted to say

O tema da canção, “One Sweet Day”, foi inspirado pelos afetados pela epidemia de AIDS, refletindo a dor e a esperança de reencontros no céu.
O vídeo oficial, dirigido por Larry Jordan, apresenta apenas cenas do estúdio e da gravação, pois os dois artistas não dispuseram de tempo para um vídeo completo.
Em 1996, o duo gravou a música durante a cerimônia do 38º Grammy, e em 1997 a apresentaram no memorial de Princesa Diana, ampliando seu alcance internacional.
“One Sweet Day” tornou-se a quarta música a estrear no número um da Billboard Hot 100 e manteve o topo por 16 semanas consecutivas, quebrando o recorde de longa permanência em 1995 e segurando-o por 23 anos.
A faixa foi incluída nas compilações de Mariah Carey #1’s (1998), Greatest Hits (2001), The Ballads (2008) e #1 to Infinity (2015), consolidando sua posição como um dos maiores sucessos da carreira.
