She had one more
A sympathy for the ages
She broke down every door
And turned all the pages 

And in the light of the evening
Beneath a yellow sky
Fireflies made her cry
But nothing else could touch her heart

Take for granted what you can
Nothing much is given 
One day you’re cosmic dust
The next day here you are living



Hi there! If you're new around these parts, welcome. I'm Jonathan Mann. I write a song every single day, and I've been doing that for the last 9+ years.

Through sick days, tired days, days with no inspiration, the death of my grandma, the breakup of a 5 year long relationship, the marriage to my wife and the birth of our son - I've never missed a day. This is my life's work.

You can see my most current song, as well as songs from year's past over at http://songaday.org
