Two steps
Two steps forward, two steps back
A viscous tango of yearning and fear
I reach for your hand but I fear you are not there
Is it you who stepped back?
Or was it really me that walked that track
I want you there, but I cannot feel safe
Safe to hold your hand and kiss your hair
Two steps forward, one step back
The ground has changed yet not at all
I wonder if it’ll ever stay back
Three steps closer, one step back
I cry in hope that now will be the time
No steps forward, no steps back
To stay with you is the ultimate gift
One step forward, one step back.
Three steps forward, four steps back.
