One Step Closer Lyrics

One Step Closer

One Step Closer
The Doobie Brothers

Baby, there's a chance you ought
to take
Chance of a mistake you gotta make
Maybe I'm mistaken too
To
take my chance with you
I need you like a shadow needs a light
I'll
follow you like morning follows night
When nothin's left ahead of
you
I'll be right behind you
Shadows disappear at night
We both know
it's a shame if you should lose one
Why is it so hard to find
Tell me
that you're right there too

One step baby
Two steps maybe
One step
closer
I'll be next to you

Baby, it's a secret I can't
keep
Trouble comes and suddenly you're weak
I don't believe you got the
strength
To fight this kind of love
I know it's risky now and
then,
What with all the what ifs and the whens
Who is there to say we're
wrong
To tell us it can't be
Come on, baby, please don't go
I'm heart
of stone and you know why is it so hard to do
Tell me that you're right
there too, baby
Baby, can't you see we're runnin' late
Can't you see we
ain't got time to wait
Might be that you're scared of me
Of something you
might feel
Hold on to me, baby, hold on tight
I can take us through the
night all right
Maybe I will stay here too
Take my chance with
you

Shadows disappear at night
We both know it's a shame if you
should lose one
Why is it so hard to find
Tell me that you're right there
too

One step baby
Two steps maybe
One step closer
