Every Day (Luke Leighfield Cover)

[Verse 1]
Pull the covers from my eyes
I’ve been hiding in this bed for days
As if sleeping could make all my problems go away
Each appearance of night is another day wasted
Missed opportunities, failed excuses
Facing problems head on is the only escape from this haze

[Pre-Chorus]
The last four years have offered many excuses
The next four won’t offer any more
I’ve cut others down to raise myself up
As if harsh words were ever enough
Admitting the problem is a testament to change

[Chorus]
I’m trying to make every day count
I’m trying to make every day count
So that good times are many and failings are few
And my life can be a tribute to you
Every day count
I’m trying to make every day count
So that good times are many and failings are few
And my life can be a tribute to you

[Verse 2]
Taking two steps back the whole thing became clearer
Everything formulaic and precise
The prizes are all laid out for the taking
Justice is merely seeking a reason
To enter in and set the world to rights

[Chorus]
I’m trying to make every day count
I’m trying to make every day count
So that good times are many and failings are few
And my life can be a tribute to you
Every day count
I’m trying to make every day count
So that good times are many and failings are few
And my life can be a tribute to you

[Bridge]
We won’t be young forever, we’re aging every day
And there’s no guarantee we’ll even make it through this day
So while I’m young I’m taking chances
Stealing looks then second glances
We’re gonna leave the world richer than when we came

[Chorus]
I’m trying to make every day count
I’m trying to make every day count
So that good times are many and failings are few
And my life can be a tribute to you
Every day count
I’m trying to make every day count
So that good times are many and failings are few
And my life can be a tribute to you
