Steps Lyrics

Little baby boy, sittin round his toys Gettin tired of crawlin He's pullin up on an easy chair He's gonna try a little walkin He's takin steps A six year old with a new school bag Starin down his drive Holdin on to his mama's hand He's going on his first bus ride He's takin steps A teenage boy in a rented tux Reaching out a trembling hand To a pretty young girl in a satin dress Asking her to dance (chorus) Steps, some big, some small Puttin one foot after the other Steps, the trick to it all Is diggin down to find a little courage And it's okay To be afraid You gotta have faith Life's all about Steps For 22 years she stood by a man Who did her wrong With a packed suitcase And a greyhound ticket, she's finally gone She's takin steps At a meeting downtown, a tired old drunk Stands and says his name That leaves him eleven to go and he can Already feel the change He's takin steps Somewhere a great grandpa says "i'm ready to go" Peacefully drifts off to sleep Wakes up on streets of gold
