One Day At a Time

Let's face the truth

Sooner or later, no matter what somebody has to lose

I'll be on the road and you're going to school down in Baton Rouge

And I promise you the world, my love, but what's the use?

But what's the use?

I can't explain

How it feels like we have it all when everything's bound to change

I'm fearing that I lose my place inside of your picture frames

And I promise you the world, my love, but we can't stay

Tonight, we're saying goodbye

Chain-smoking cigarettes

We lie, pretend it's alright

I say you'll always be mine

Don't know what happens next

We'll find some way to get by

One day at a time

I know it's hard

I'm dreading the moment I see you pack all that shit in your car

When one of us walks out the door all alone with a broken heart

So let's make the most of this moment before it all falls apart, yeah

Whatever's meant to be, just hold your head up (Hold your head up)

No matter where we go, I'm on your side (I'm on your side)

Let's not make it out like we are fed up (We're not fed up)

There's just no controlling when it's time, so

Tonight, we're saying goodbye

Chain-smoking cigarettes

We lie, pretend it's alright

I say you'll always be mine

Don't know what happens next

We'll find some way to get by

One day at a time

Baby, baby, leave for the road

You don't need my permission to go on your own

So don't act crazy and turn around when you realize

The future's hazy, just keep that piece of shit in drive

Tonight, we're saying goodbye

Chain-smoking cigarettes

We lie, pretend it's alright

I say you'll always be mine

Don't know what happens next

We'll find some way to get by

Tonight, we're saying goodbye

Chain-smoking cigarettes

We lie, pretend it's alright

I say you'll always be mine

Don't know what happens next

We'll find some way to get by

One day at a time
