One day at a time That's how I live my life today One glimpse at the sun And I was blinded by the light What a price I was to pay Each morning I rise And I pray to God above That one day I will return To the world I left behind To the people that I love It's been ten years, maybe more Since I've been locked behind this door And by rights I should be free You can take a man, break his will Make him bad, give him time to kill But you can't do that to me I'm an innocent man And I refuse to lie down I refuse ta lie down They put me in a place Where the sun refused to shine They took away my soul But my memories remained Of that once-upon-a-time One day at a time That's how I live my life today Still searching to find A single word ihat fits the lock To turn the key to set me free And I refuse to lie down I refuse to lie down
