One By One - Daphne Willis

I made a mess of the moments*

One by one

Got a stack of disappointments

And then some

I’ve been trying to find the light

I’ve been blinded by the sun

Now I gotta make it through the nights

One by one

It’s so true

When you break there’s nothing else you can do

Get it together

It can only get better

I gotta pick up the pieces

One by one

I got a ticket to Chicago

To reconcile

Got a number in my pocket

That I need to dial

So many words to say

So much to be done

And I’ve got to change my ways

One by one

It’s so true

When you break there’s nothing else you can do but.

Get it together

It can only get better

I gotta pick up the pieces

One by one

One day

It’s gonna be ok

It’s gonna be alright

Today

I’m gonna be just fine

I made up my mind

To get it together

I’m gonna make it better

I’m gonna pick up the pieces

One by one
