One By One © Joel Plimmer
I was lying face down
In the middle of the pouring rain
I needed something I couldn’t give
Writing notes in bottles
Trying to get rescued from the pain
Trying to save my sinking ship
Then one by one
You cracked ‘em open
You read each line
How my life was broken
Looking in the mirror
Tryin’ to make things right
Just searching for an answer
Of how to get through the night
Then one by one
You start the healing
Those dark clouds can’t
Rain away this feeling
When you bring ‘em to the sun
One by one
Now the seas are calmer I guess the storm has passed
You changed my course so I could see
You’re the wind in my sail the strength that holds my mast
You’re the light inside of me
Now one by one
Like Zuzu’s petals
My life came back on so many levels
You’re filling up my pockets
With happy memories
That I had once forgotten
Yeah they’ve been waiting for me
Then one by one
All of those voices
That once told me
How my life was pointless
They say take that thought
And turn it around
Take your life and make it count
Give your faith, give your heart
He’ll give to you another life
Another place to start
Then one by one
People will see it
They’ll see your life in me
I’ll live it
And to you they’ll come
One by one
You’re brighter than the sun
Yeah to you they’ll come
One by one
