This Step Alone - Elliott Yamin
It's taken its toll girl.
The silence is cold.
We're stuck at a dead end.
And I'm starting to wonder
Did I say something wrong?
I keep asking the question
Will you turn around and come with me?
Or should I read the signs and leave and let you be?
Now I'm standing at this roadblock
And there's no way around it.
I've been waiting for your mind to change
'Cause it feels so one-sided.
I saw us break, I watched us fall.
It made no sense to me at all.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna take this step alone.
In my heart of hearts I always knew
This jump was way too far for you.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna to take this step,
I'm gonna take this step alone.
Alone.
So give me a reason
Why you're on the outside when you should be here.
We're no good together so maybe it's better?
I'll walk alone but you'll always be near.
Now there's no room for settling.
I gotta do this, I need to. (Ohhh)
But this mirror that I'm looking in
There's no reflection without you.
'Cause I saw us break, I watched us fall.
It made no sense to me at all.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna take this step alone.
In my heart of hearts I always knew
This jump was way too far for you.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna to take this step,
I'm gonna take this step alone.
The sanctity I found deep in your arms,
It was a false alarm
And it burns,
Yeah it hurts.
I lie awake at night
And think of what we could have been if it worked
Then we choose to go our separate ways
Instead of meeting each other half way
And if I had to choose girl
I'd have you by my siiiiide
I saw us break, I watched us fall.
It made no sense to me at all.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna take this step alone.
In my heart of hearts I always knew
This jump was way too far for you.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna take this step,
I'm gonna take this step alone.
Alone, alone.
I'm gonna take this step alone.
All alone.
