You know I've lived my life one day at a time
But today I'm ready to look past tomorrow
Cause today's not long enough anymore
Cause yesterday was today, just a day before
And I'm ready to live for more than just now
It's strange what a single day can bring
A precious lesson can change your every way
But a lesson is nothing without a test
But the lesson was the test, I'm waiting on the rest
And I'm ready to learn what my tongue will say
A childs eyes are taught to see what they shouldn't
The innocents' sight turns the innocent blind
And the sight of forgiveness is a penny in the pond
And the sight of many is thrown away, tossed away and gone
And I'm ready to see again what I lost inside
Although today is what I'm living in constantly
The life I want to live is still years away
While my life has been lived I'm living yet
While my life is changing, the past has slept
And I'm ready to live my live outside of today
The past is from where I learn how to love in the future
The love that I've left I know I haven't lost
If only love were the only thing I ever needed
If only love would come, and you know I've pleaded
And I'm ready to love you and you can bet any cost
You know I've lived my life one day at a time
But today I'm looking toward tomorrow
For all the questions I need answered
