Lyrics Yusuf Islam

Yusuf Islam

One Day at a Time

One day at a time

we can learn to leave the past behind

One day at a time

we can look the future in the eye

One day at a time

we can learn to live

The gates of the garden are open wide:

and the trusting 70 thousand will enter

of them without reckoning

One day at a time

we can learn to leave our fears behind

One day at a time

we can stare our hopes in the eye

One day at a time

we can learn to live

and if you meet the evening

don't wait for the Sun to rise

One day at a time

we can leave all treasures behind

One day at a time

we can watch the clocks unwind

One day at a time

a child is born into this world eyes blind

But one day he will find - his sight, and glimpse

another kind of Light

to live by - one day

One day at a time

we can put machines behind

One day at a time

we can learn how birds survive

One day at a time

we can learn to fly
