waste away the afternoon
feelin sorry for myself
got a thousand things i need to do
but my motivation left

and all your letters
are scattered across my bed
every "i love you"
underlined in red lines
remind me

takin it one day at a time
havin her come and havin her go
tryin to drink you off my mind
well i'm fallin apart
one day at a time

call you up but no one's home
i guess you're out there on the town
any other thursday night
i'd be right beside you just pourin em down

circle of friends
hangin out at the city bar
i guess they all know now
how you broke my heart
said i'm takin it hard

livin one day at time
havin her come and havin her go
tryin to drink you off my mind
but i'm fallin apart
one day at a time

really thought that i was gonna make you happy
i'm such a fool, such a fool
i let you in but i guess you did't like what you seen
love is cruel, love is cruel, love

dyin one day at a time
havin her come and havin her go
tryin to drink you off my mind
but i'm fallin apart
one day at a time

one day at a time
one day at a time
one day at a time
one day at a time
