Woke up this mornin', put the coffe on
Opened up the blinds and there was the sun
Now, this ain't just another day
It's the hardest one I've ever faced

[Chorus:]

Minute by minute, tear by tear
If I can hang on and just be strong
Tommorow will be here
The hurtin' won't end, it's only just begun
But I'll get over you, if I can make it through
Day one

I'll jump head-first into my work
If I stay busy, maybe it won't hurt
Anything to forget you're gone
And keep the time from draggin' on

[Chorus]

Someday I'll look back on it all
And thank God my heart survived the fall

[Chorus]

Minute by minute, I'll be hangin' on
But I'll get over you, if I can make it through
Day one
Yeah, I'll get over you, if I can only make it through
Day one
