I keep praying … that it will never happen to me

But if it does… I know just what will get me through

It's remembering what you said in your wistful reverie:

"You've got to live for the moment;
Today you're alive -- tomorrow you might not be...

Never take love for granted;
and never lose sight
of the things you feel
but you just cannot see...

You've got to reach for the summit...
'til you can no longer climb

Remember: life is priceless; and...you've got to live it...

One breath at a time...

No excuses; no holding back; just...
One breath at a time...

Don't rush it through; don't let it pass you by...
live it...
One breath at a time...
One breath at a time...

It should be so very easy for each of us to see
that...at any moment
fate can turn on a dime

So live life while you're in it;
there's simply nothing more sublime;

You've got treasure every minute...

You've got to reach for the summit...
'til you can no longer climb

Remember: life is priceless; and...you've got to live it...

One breath at a time...

No excuses; no holding back; just...
One breath at a time...

Don't rush it through; don't let it pass you by...
live it...
One breath at a time...
One breath at a time...

And when I just can't seem
to make it through another day,
That's when I'm haunted
By the words you used to say:

You've got to reach for the summit...
'til you can no longer climb

Remember: life is priceless; and...you've got to live it...

One breath at a time...

No excuses; no holding back; just...
One breath at a time...

Don't rush it through; don't let it pass you by...
live it...
One breath at a time...
One breath at a time...
