I live one day at a time I dream one dream at a time Yesterday's dead and tomorrow is blind And I live one day at a time I guess that's your surprise to see me back at home But you know how much I miss you when I'm gone But don't ask how long I planned to stay It never it crossed my mind 'cause I live one day at a time See that sparrow fly across the cloudy sky Searchin' for a hatch of sunlight so am I I wish I didn't have to follow and perhaps I want in time But I live one day at a time I live one day at a time I dream one dream at a time Yesterday's dead and tomorrow is blind And I live one day at a time And I live one day at a time
