Grammar

While Joel Houston's song is titled "Everyday" (one word), rules of standard English grammar say that it should be "Every Day" (two words). 'Everyday' is an adjective which means 'commonplace' or 'ordinary.' The context within the song itself shows that Houston meant to talk about what happens each day, which requires the adverb 'every day.'
