Lyrics

Verse 1
Morning comes in quiet, and my mind runs fast
I look at what I'm carrying, and what I've left in the past
I don't have the answers, but I'm here again
Trying to be gentle with the way the day begins

Verse 1
I feel the weight of "should," like a stone in my chest
But I'm learning to breathe through it, learning how to rest
If all I do is show up, if all I do is try
That's enough for this moment—so I'm taking it in stride

Pre-Chorus
We don't have to fix it all tonight
We just need a little light

Chorus
One day at a time
One breath, one step, one line
If the road feels steep, we'll keep our pace
We'll meet ourselves with a little grace
One day at a time

Verse 2
Some days I stumble, and I doubt my name
But I'm still moving forward, even with the strain
I'll take the small wins—let them count as proof
That I can build a better day, even under this roof

Verse 2
And when the noise gets louder, I'll hold on to what is real
A steady hand to hold, a chance to heal
I don't need a miracle, I don't need a perfect plan
Just a softer heart, and the courage where I stand

Pre-Chorus
We don't have to carry every fight
Just the next right thing tonight

Chorus
One day at a time
One breath, one step, one line
If the road feels steep, we'll keep our pace
We'll meet ourselves with a little grace
One day at a time

Bridge
A: If I fall...

B: I'll wait.
A: If I'm tired...
B: I'll stay.
A: If it's heavy...
B: We'll share it.
Both: And start again, the same simple way

Final Chorus
One day at a time
One breath, one step, one line
If the road feels steep, we'll keep our pace
We'll meet ourselves with a little grace
One day at a time
