Lyrics
I'm Ok Music and lyrics by Lisa Crouch
CHORUS
Bit by bit - I'm picking up the pieces Inch by inch - one step at a time
Day by day - just trying to make it work, when my heart it broken up inside
Ev'ry little thing - makes me think about you Got you in my heart - like a new tattoo
Gotta tell myself - that your happier now. I want to let you now that I'm ok
VERSE
6 weeks seems like a lifetime but it's flashing by real fast
Each day throws me a lifeline, now I've got it in my grasp
No point saying what I shoulda coulda done, cos it doesn't matter now
I raise my eyes and I see another sun....nothing's gonna stop me now
CHORUS
VERSE
Ev'ry single day in a million diff'rent ways, I feel the empty space
See it in the tears of my Mother's eyes, see it in my face
No point saying that I can't go on, gotta find a way how
I raise my eyes and I see another sun....nothing's gonna stop me now
