[Verse 1]

Winter came so soon

Like summer never happened

We're players on a stage

With roles already scripted

We're working for a wage

I'm living for today

On a giant piece of dirt

Spinning in the universe

[Pre-Chorus]

I can hear your cry out there

And I can feel you close to me

[Chorus]

One day at a time

Inch by inch

For every kiss

On lovers' lips

For all lost souls

Who can't come home

For friends not here

We shed our tears

[Verse 2]

And all I wanna do

Is make the right impression

The instrument of truth

A soldier with no weapons

I care so much for you

I'd crawl a thousand miles

Through deserts full of sand

My love in every land

[Pre-Chorus]

I can hear your cry out there

And I can feel you everywhere

[Chorus]

One day at a time

Inch by inch

For every kiss

On lovers' lips

For all lost souls

Who can't come home

For friends not here

We shed our tears

One day at a time

Inch by inch

For every kiss

On lovers' lips

For all lost souls

Who can't come home

For friends not here

We shed our tears

[Pre-Chorus]

I can feel your presence here

Tender softly through the air

[Chorus]

One day at a time

Inch by inch

For every kiss

On lovers lips

For all lost souls

Who can't come home
