Every Little Day

Every Little Day
     from Something Worth Doing

I had a day in the life, it was a crossroads.
I saw somebody come, I saw somebody go,
same expressions on their faces,
different ends of the road.
You see, somebody lost the struggle,
     that's how it was said,
someone was born with a long journey up ahead.
No one had a map, no instructions to be read.
That's all I need to know, it's just so.
I said to myself,

Every little day the world's brand new,
the sun comes up and the clouds roll through.
Everything else is just up to you.
Every little day the world's brand new.

I felt terrible, I felt lucky at the way things are,
like a glad accident, like a bright shooting star,
like a brave little ripple in an ocean so large.
It's all I need to know, it's just so.
I say to myself...

Chorus

I hear myself saying the words without thinking,
Every little day...

In the face of the big questions, nobody knows why,
some people smile a knowing smile,
some turn away and hide.
So much has to happen between hello and goodbye.
It's all I need to know, it's just so.

Went to the Greg Greenway concert last night. He opened with this song and the chorus has stuck in me.

Every little day the world's brand new,
the sun comes up and the clouds roll through.
Everything else is just up to you.
Every little day the world's brand new.
