(mhm-mmh) A pocket full of copper and some old string
We don't need much to make this engine sing
An empty kitchen but the stove is warm
Your hand in mine is a shelter from the storm
Day by day, we stretch the wire
Keep on feeding our small fire
We're making it by
with a little at a time
Your heartbeat keeping steady with mine
No silver, no gold,
no mountain to climb
Just making it by
with a little at a time (ooh-ooh)
We share a cup and watch the morning rise
Seeing the whole world in your quiet eyes
We patch the holes when the rain leaks through
There's nothing broken that we can't undo
We're making it by
with a little at a time
Your heartbeat keeping steady with mine
No silver, no gold,
no mountain to climb
Just making it by
with a little at a time (yeah)
Just a little at a time...
(mhm-mmh) We're gonna be
just fine
