[Chorus] 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 [Verse] 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 I live one day at a time See that sparrow fly across the cloudy sky Searching 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 [Chorus]
