One Heartbeat At A Time

I know that there’s no use
But I think it anyway
Everyday you change my life
I pray for one more way

Run your fingers through my hand again
Let the clock just tick away
Today is all we have
And it’s here I want to stay

It’s hard to know the truth
Or anything at all
But I do the best I can
The writings on the wall

I’m here to be with you
Not to hurt or make you cry
Today is all we have
And love you, I will try

One heartbeat at a time

It’s easy once you see
That a little is all you need
So take it all in stride
There’s nothing left to hide

Let the wind blow through my hair
And watch the years just melt to way
Today is all we have
I pray the night will stay

I know that there’s no use
But I hope to make you see
That my heart is in your hands
And it’s there you set me free

I’ve been floating through this life I know
But my feet just hit the ground
Gonna take the time, learn to breath again
And slow everything down to
