I wake up in the night
The nightmare comes alive
My heart is beatin' like a drum
It's only 3 A.M., oh here I go again
I close my eyes, but sleep won't come
It's been like this for too long
I get back up and carry on
One day at a time
More mountains to climb
(But) Sometimes it don't come easy
One day at a time or I'll lose my mind
That's all I can do, believe me
The sun comes creepin' in
I've had no sleep again
It's been another long, long night
This thing won't go away
It's time to face the day
What can I do to make things right?
It's been like this since you've been gone
I find the strength to carry on
(chorus)
It's been like this for too long
I've found the way to carry on
(chorus)
The nightmare comes alive

It's been like this for too long

One day at a time
More mountains to climb
(But) Sometimes it don't come easy
One day at a time or I'll lose my mind
That's all I can do, believe me
The sun comes creepin' in
I've had no sleep again
It's been another long, long night
This thing won't go away
It's time to face the day
What can I do to make things right?
