I woke up an hour early, put on my runnin' shoes Oh man, it's been a while, a half a mile's all i could do Then i pulled a couple weeds out of the cracks In the sidewalk to my front door Poured out the coffee pot, stuck it underneath the cabinet Drank a tall cool glass of water, gonna break that caffiene habit And quit steppin' over all my winter clothes And pick em' up off the floor Stop by bobby hendons, pay him back that twenty bucks It's just a little thing, it may not seem like much Chorus But hey, it's a start, a speck of light in the dark A place where smilin' don't come so hard any more My visions growin' clearer, i see a face that's so familiar Yeah, this mornin' in the mirror by the door I caught a glance of the man i've been lookin' for A couple weeks ago i met a nice girl at my church She reminded me of you, so sweet and down to earth Well i finally mustered up a little nerve, and asked her for her number I met her at the deli on her lunch break yesterday We both went dutch, so i guess it's not a date Chorus Bridge I remember when the doctor said you didn't have too long You made me promise i'd move on But it's puttin' my faith to the test, everyday i do my best Girl, i know they're only baby steps Chorus
