|
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 |
