Lyrics
Another Day
Push the snooze down twice, throw the covers back
Stumble four steps from the bed into the bath
Wash my hair and pull a towel from off the rack
Grab a shirt and pants, head down that old cement path
Another day
Just another day
Just want to make it through another day
If I ever prayed
Know what I would say
Help me make tomorrow more than just making it through
Another day
Stop and eat my lunch; sandwich, chips and some fruit
Get my coat and keys, lock up my desk and go
Drive my car back home along the same old route
Fire up the microwave, sit down and watch a TV show
Another day
Just another day
Just want to make it through another day
If I ever prayed
Know what I would say
Help me make tomorrow more than just making it through
Another day
When?s the last time I watched the sunshine
Or walked in the rain
What?s the last thing I did
I couldn?t wait to do again?
Another day
Just another day
Just want to make it through another day
If I ever prayed
Know what I would say
Help me make tomorrow more than just making it through
Another day
