Looking back when you were wide-eyed, early in the dance of life
Running hot with passion to burn, but told to sit and wait your turn
Make it through school, learn how to play it cool
Now the challenge is love, how to get ahold of all you dream of
Heart spinning as you reach out for more
Palms sweaty, feet heavy, how do you find the courage to walk across the floor Just take one step at a time
One at a time, you’ll make mistakes but you’ll be fine
Leave your worries your fears behind, and be on your way
One at a time, don’t miss the beauty on the ride
Every one is precious, one of a kind, just take them one at a time
From a walk to a run, on a roll, then it’s square one
Balancing family & the uphill climb, all in the game of money and time
Juggling it all, don’t let anything fall
There are days when you wonder what you do it for, then your kid with a baseball mitt stands waiting at the door
Heart stretching, but the love you give will grow
You’re strong, the race goes on, and you wonder how much further you can go
Just take one day at a time
One at a time, you’ll make mistakes but you’ll be fine
Leave your worries your fears behind, and be on your way
One at a time, don’t miss the beauty on the ride
Every one is precious, one of a kind, just take them one at a time
Time marches on, and youth fades
Now I lay in this bed, talking with my younger self before I pass away….
Oh by the way thank you, as I fall into the other side
one breath at a time
