The Oak Ridge Boys

Taking One Heartbeat (At A Time)

As I look around on another day

Sometimes I get so mad seeing the same old game

So many people caught in hopeless situations

I can’t make much sense there’s too much information.

Someone’s always trying to run someone else’s life

Woh, someone’s only trying to make it through the night.

Putting one foot before the other

One step, then another

No map, no sign, taking one heartbeat at a time

It’s a long road in a short life

One foot’s on the other side

We look for love before we die

Taking one heartbeat at a time.

One thing I know, the only thing I’m sure of

There wouldn’t be much point without your love.

On this ship of fools, don’t know where we’re going

Most of what we’re told is not worth the knowing.

Someone’s always trying to sell a new version of the truth

After all the words have gone, all I still believe is you.

In putting one foot before the other

One step, then another

No map, no sign, taking one heartbeat at a time

It’s a long road in a short life

One foot’s on the other side

We look for love before we die

Taking one heartbeat at a time.

We’re putting one foot before the other

One step, then another

No map, no sign, taking one heartbeat at a time.

It’s a long road in a short life

One foot’s on the other side.

We look for love before we die

Taking one heartbeat at a time.

Woh wo woh no map, no sign, taking one heartbeat at a time

One heartbeat at a time

We look for love before we die
