  • Once a day, I rise
    Once a day, I fall asleep with you
    Once a day, I try but I can't find a single word
    I wonder what they know
    I wonder if they ever even cared at all
    I wonder, do they see their own reflection in the rain
    And look away?

    Everybody keep rushin'
    Why aren't we taking our time?
    Every now and again, baby, I get high

    Don't ask me what I think
    It never really mattered what I had to say
    I just keep waiting for another open door
    To come up soon
    Don't keep it all in your head
    The only place that you know nobody ever can see
    You're runnin' low on regret
    No tears, that's keeping you wet
    I think you gettin' it now

    But everybody keep rushin'
    Why aren't we taking our time?
    Every now and again, baby, I get high

    And everybody means something
    When they're stuck on your mind
    But every now and again, why can't we just be fine?

    Once a day, I rise
    Once a day, I fall asleep with you
    Once a day, I try but I can't find a single word Writer/s: Malcolm James McCormick
