"Day By Day" lyrics

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

Day by day
One day at a time
