All in the Run of a Day

My mother has a lot of favorite songs, that I've written

But you wanna know, between you and me? Heh... I think this is her favorite song

I guess it's her favorite song, because it deals with the things, so many things, that happen to you in a day

Remember that old Washington once said, "what a difference a day makes"?

24 little hours...

My mother has asked me many times during the years, "why don't you record that song"?

And... and it's one of my favorites too

Because it's real, it deals with... truth

Many things, that can change overnight

You can wake up in the morning, everything is wrong

By the time you go to sleep, everything is right

You never know, you never ever know

So this is my mother's song, "All In The Run Of A Day"

A new baby cries

Some poor soul dies

(That's the way life goes)

But that's the way life goes

(Everybody knows it's a)

It's a pleasure and pain

(Ooh...)

[?] broken chains

All in the run of a day

Yea-ey-ey

You can be down and out

And rise again (rise again)

Wage your dreams

Then cash it in (then cash it in)

We do it all...

We do it all!

In a day

It's a give and take (given, taken)

We hope that we will make it (hope we'll, make it)

But never, never let it go

You know love walks out on you (someone's leaving)

Then you found you someone new (stumble your grieving)

(All..) all in the run of a day

Yea-ey-ey

We move through life

At such a fast pace (such a fast pace)

Giving old Father Time

An endless chase (endless chase)

We do it all...

We do it all!

In a day

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh...

(All..) all in the run of a day

Yea-ey-ey

Sometimes just take

A little time out and say (we should say)

"Thank you", for Jesus has given me

Another day (for one more day)

He does it all...

He does it all!

In a day, yeah

In a day, yeah

Be down and out

And rise again (ooh)

Wage your dreams

Then cash it in

We do it all

We do it all

(Ah...)

Oh, yeah yeah

Mhm, mhm
