Day By Day
Grady Tate Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Day by day I'm falling more in love with you
And day by day my love seems to grow
There isn't any end to my devotion
It's deeper dear by far than any ocean

I find that day by day you're making all my dreams come true
So come what may I want you to know
I'm yours alone, and I'm in love to stay
As we go through the years day by day

This kind of love isn't just a passing infatuation, but a commitment to staying by their loved one's side for years to come.

Given the status of current events "Movin' Day" seems most serendipitous. Things happen in life ( sometimes good, sometimes bad ) and we are placed in a position to relocate, to start anew or abandon things. Murtagh and Michlin composition is both thought provoking and heartbreaking yet still beautiful. Grady Tate does a masterful job with this tune. His rich elegant deep voice paints a beautiful song story. Back by incredible musicians this track takes the listener on a brilliant musical journey that is captured by John Tropea's guitar and Billy Butler's stunning solo, Wade Marcus unbelievable strings and horns arrangement and Ron Carter's dope bass work and the awesomely talented Richard Tee. This is a very relatable song on many levels. Brilliantly recorded and graciously uploaded 75. Big thumbs up. ( With love to all the people in Texas ).
