One Step Ahead

I'm only one step ahead of heartbreak One step ahead of misery One step is all I have to take Backwards, to be the same old fool for you I used to be I'm only one step ahead of your arms One kiss away from your sweet lips I know I can't afford to stop for one moment 'Cause I'm just out of reach of your fingertips Your warm breath on my shoulder Keeps reminding me That it's too soon to forget you It's too late to be free, can't you see? I'm only one step ahead of your love I try and yet I can't take two Seems like I'll have to take that one step backwards 'Cause one step ahead is a step too far away from you. 'Cause one step ahead is a step too far away from you. Just one step ahead is a step too far away from you. --- One Step Ahead - Aretha Franklin
