 One day at a time, we can leave all treasures be-hind.
                                           
 One day at a time, we can watch the clocks un-wind.

Middle 8:

                                                     
 One day at a time, a child is born in-to this world; eyes blind.
                            
 But one day, he will find his sight.
                                                 
 And glimpse a-nother kind of light to live by, one day.

 One day at a time, we can learn how birds sur-vive.
                                  
 One day at a time, we can learn to fly.
