Wake up every morning Just to see my troubles through If ever it was possible I'd live and die for you Trying to sleep on through the night When everything is on the line Found a way to hold it back Singing, Lord, don't be mad Day by day One day at a time
People say it's not that much I'll take it anyway I picked it up, then lost it all Somewhere along the way Slowing down is not my style If I could just for a while Get ahead and not look behind Looking for some peace of mind Day by day One day at a time
Day by day One day at a time
I'd like to make a difference I'd like to make some sense But everything is closing in Looking through the lens Take the happy and the sad I'll take the good, I'll take the bad Take it all 'cause it won't last Giving everything I have Day by day One day at a time
