Lyric

Morning on the floorboards

Kettle by the sink

I tie my shoes slow

Take a breath and think

Your hand finds mine

Like it knows the way

We start with a small smile

Then we take the day

The bread burns dark

I laugh and turn it off

You touch my sleeve

And the rough world softens up

The street is busy

But my chest stays calm

With your name in my pocket

Like a folded charm

Keep it gentle

Keep it real

Every heart needs time

To heal

Move with care

Read the room

Even love can bloom

Too soon

One day at a time

We can make it through

One day at a time

Me and you

Hold on to the light

When the edges bend

One day at a time

We begin again

One day at a time

We can make it through

One day at a time

Me and you

Noon at the office

Screens go white and loud

Phones keep ringing hard

Through the passing crowd

I watch the tempers rise

I watch the words get thin

Some doors swing open

Some doors close again

I don’t run my mouth

I count to ten

I’ve seen a quick spark

Turn to ash by then

So I keep my grace

Keep my step in line

If the ground feels shaky

I don’t cross that line

Keep it gentle

Keep it wise

Not every storm

Is a surprise

Move with care

Choose your pace

Some bright mistakes

Leave a trace

One day at a time

We can make it through

One day at a time

Me and you

Hold on to the light

When the edges bend

One day at a time

We begin again

One day at a time

We can make it through

One day at a time

Me and you

Evening on the corner

Rain in the bus stop glass

We share the last of fries

And watch the buses pass

You tell me your old fear

I tell you mine

We both got cracks

In the same weak line

But we’re still here

Still walking home

Still building a warm place

Out of bone and stone

No perfect promise

Just a steady hand

A little more patience

And a little more land

Keep it gentle

Keep it near

The hardest road

Can clear

Move with care

Stay awake

Love is strong

But hearts can break

One day at a time

We can make it through

One day at a time

Me and you

Hold on to the light

When the edges bend

One day at a time

We begin again

One day at a time

We can make it through

One day at a time

Me and you

Midnight at the window

Quiet in the glass

All the long hours

Finally pass

We made it messy

We made it true

We kept the flame

Without burning through

So if tomorrow

Starts to shake

We won’t promise perfect

We’ll promise awake

Soft in the morning

Strong by the night

Care in our hands

And our hearts upright

One day at a time

We can make it through

One day at a time

Me and you

Hold on to the light

When the edges bend

One day at a time

We begin again

One day at a time

We can make it through

One day at a time

Me and you

One day at a time

We begin again
