Gotta take the first step before the second
First one's the hardest one to fake
First one I was on the lookout
The second one was uphill all the way

I wanna see my soul reflection
In a morning café window pane
I wanna see myself tomorrow
As someone I don't see today

Step by step I hear you calling
Step by step it's just
Step by step I heed my warnings
Step by step it's just one day at a time

Always saw myself as a victim
One that I had to create
Always an excuse for my addictions
But I had to stand up, take my place

I wanna see the morning colors
Ones that I've avoided for so long
I wanna see myself tomorrow
As someone I don't see today

Step by step I hear you calling
Step by step it's just
Step by step I heed your warnings
Step by step it's just one day at a time

I heard about secrets
In a love so divine
Comin' down from the heavens
In time, your soul will shine

Step by step I hear you calling
Step by step it's just one day at a time
Step by step I heed your warnings
Step by step it's just

Step by step do you see me falling
Step by step it's just one day at a time
Step by step it's a new morning
Step by step it's just
One day at a time
