(*Daphne Willis, Hunter Davis, and Chris Faulk)
[Verse 1:]
I made a mess of the moments*
One by one
Got a stack of disappointments
And then some
I've been trying to find the light
I've been blinded by the sun
Now I gotta make it through the nights
One by one
It's so true
When you break there's nothing else you can do
[Chorus:]
Get it together
It can only get better
I gotta pick up the pieces
One by one
[Verse 2:]
I got a ticket to Chicago
To reconcile
Got a number in my pocket
That I need to dial
So many words to say
So much to be done
And I've got to change my ways
One by one
It's so true
When you break there's nothing else you can do but..
[Chorus:]
Get it together
It can only get better
I gotta pick up the pieces
One by one
[Bridge:]
One day
It's gonna be ok
It's gonna be alright
Today
I'm gonna be just fine
I made up my mind
To get it together
I'm gonna make it better
I'm gonna pick up the pieces
One by one
