by Joan Osborne, Eric Bazilian, Rob Hyman, Rick Chertoff

Today and ever-y day,
Today and ever-y day
Today and ever-y day,
Today and ever-y day
I'm standin' here in your closet,
Unbuttonin' all your clothes
You sleep in your bed tonight,
But i never find you home
You're givin' me crooked answers,
I'm crackin' your little code
I'm learnin' another language,
So full it's about to explode
BRIDGE:
Em (vamp)
You give me a ladder now
I surely believe I'll climb
It don't even matter now
I'm willing to take my time
CHORUS:
I'm gonna love you anyway - - hey-ay.
Today and ever-y day,
Today and ever-y day
I'm gonna love you anyway - - hey-ay.
Today and ever-y day,
Today and ever-y day
VERSE:
I wanted it to be easy,
I know that i'll make you tired
Some tell me you're slow and lazy,
Some tell me you're so inspired
You wanted a long flirtation,
Your plane doesn't ever land
Some things i don't want to look at,
I don't want to understand but
BRIDGE:
Em (vamp)
You give me a ladder now
I surely believe i'll climb
It don't even matter now
I'm willing to take my time
