Every Step Lyrics

Every step that I take on this winding road

Is one step further away from you

Now the night is dark and the wind blows cold

But I'll keep walking – don't know what else to do

I think of all the things – all the things I've said

That have brought me here on my darkest day

It's like a film that repeats in my head

And I can't bear to look but I can't turn away

Oh the night plays tricks with your eyes

Things change shape as I get nearer

Oh the night, with all its secrets and lies

Every streetlamp wouldn't make it any clearer

And trust, you said, is like a tiny thread

Just a single thread and when it's dead, it's dead

And you must, you said, take care where you tread

But I did whatever I wanted, I wanted instead

Every step that I take on this winding road

I guess there's a truth that I might discover

Sometimes I feel like time goes so slow

Or it speeds right up – I don't know – it's one or the other

And the night plays tricks with your eyes

Things change shape as I get nearer

The night with all its secrets and lies

Every streetlamp wouldn't make it any clearer

And the night plays tricks with your mind

Sowing seeds of doubt that only get stronger

Oh, the night, that's when I find

That I can't live without your love any longer

Oh the night plays tricks with your eyes

Things change shape as I get nearer

The night with all its secrets and lies

Every streetlamp wouldn't make it any clearer
