One step behind another

About the work

(lyrics)
Every road I take bends back to you
Every sign says “don’t stop moving through”
Blisters on my soul, dust on my shoes
But every mile just proves

Love isn’t easy ground
Sometimes you walk in circles just to be found

I thought the shortest way would bring me fast
But every shortcut took me to my past
Now I know why I had to roam
Every wrong turn led me home

Mountains high and valleys low
Every “no” just made me go
Stronger than I was before
Knocking at your door

Sometimes the long way round
Is the only way love can be found

I chased the light I couldn’t see
But every shadow walked with me
Now I see the truth so clear
Every road was drawing near

If love was easy, I’d never know
How far a human soul can go
Every tear, every scar
Showed me exactly where you are

One step behind another
I can feel the start
One step behind another
I was yours from the start
All the long ways mattered
Every broken part
One step behind another
I’m finally in your heart

Step by step…
Step by step…
Step by step… into your heart

Title One step behind another
(lyrics)
Every road I take bends back to you
Every sign says “don’t stop moving through”
Blisters on my soul, dust on my shoes
But every mile just proves

Love isn’t easy ground
Sometimes you walk in circles just to be found

I thought the shortest way would bring me fast
But every shortcut took me to my past
Now I know why I had to roam
Every wrong turn led me home

Mountains high and valleys low
Every “no” just made me go
Stronger than I was before
Knocking at your door

Sometimes the long way round
Is the only way love can be found

I chased the light I couldn’t see
But every shadow walked with me
Now I see the truth so clear
Every road was drawing near

If love was easy, I’d never know
How far a human soul can go
Every tear, every scar
Showed me exactly where you are

One step behind another
I can feel the start
One step behind another
I was yours from the start
All the long ways mattered
Every broken part
One step behind another
I’m finally in your heart

Step by step…
Step by step…
Step by step… into your heart
