Lord,
just give me
one thing
that i can hold
on to

one thing
i can call my own
not to own
but to hold
sumpin'
don't grow old

everything
seems ta' slip away
day by day
it just goes away
nuthin' seem's ta' stay

Love
Family
Life
all of the Above
don't really Be
not Me

Lord,
i pray
just give me
another day
one thing to hold
before i grow old
one thing ta' stay
past yesterday
one thing that won't go away

------------

everytime
you cross my mind
i find
i go back in time
and i find
an old rhyme
or is it new
or is it just you
what can i do
but be blue

everytime
you walk across my mind
i find
you
what else can i do
just blue
still love you
what else can i do
