Slowly But Surely

Today I went for minutes
Without you on my mind
It was only seconds yesterday

I only took your picture out
A half a dozen times
The last time just one teardrop fell
Upon your face

Slowly but surely
Step by step
I'll forget
I loved and lost you
Time's gonna heal me
You can bet
Slowly but it surely hasn't yet

Last night I walked the floor
Till a little after three
Tonight I was only up till two

I'm not out of the woods yet
But I can finally see
A little daylight up ahead
Shining through

Slowly but surely
Step by step
I'll forget
I loved and lost you
Time's gonna heal me
You can bet
Slowly but it surely hasn't yet
