One Day at a Time Lyrics

...ONE DAY AT A TIME... by Yusuf Islam
*from 'An Other Cup' (2006)*
Intro:
Verse 1:
One day at a time,
We can learn to,
Leave the past be-hind.
One day at a time,
We can look the future,
In the eye.
One day at a time,
We can learn to live.
Interlude:
Bridge 1:
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh,
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh.
The gates of,
The garden are open,
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh).
Wide,
And the trusting,
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh).
70 thousand will enter,
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh).
Of them, without reckoning.
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh).
Verse 2:
One day at a time,
We can learn to leave,
Our fears be-hind.
One day at a time,
We can stare our hopes,
In the eye.
One day at a time,
We can learn to live.
Interlude:
Break:
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh,
Ooh...ooh...
Bridge 2:
And if you,
Meet the evening,
Don't wait for,
Am7 D G, D G G/F#
The Sun to rise.
Interlude:
Verse 3:
One day at a time,
We can leave,
All treasures be-hind.
One day at a time,
We can watch the clocks,
Un-wind.
Middle 8:
One day at a time,
A child is born,
In-to this world, eyes blind.
But one day,
He will find his sight.
And glimpse a-nother,
Kind of Light,
To live by, one day.
Interlude:
Verse 4:
One day at a time,
We can put,
Machines be-hind.
One day at a time,
We can learn,
How birds sur-vive.
One day at a time,
We can learn to fly.
