Every Step

I'm a fool to be kind to you ;

It's not what the men in your life tend to do

Must be so strange ; finding someone

Who only accepts you

Rejection's a lesson you've had

You're lost in the anger you feel for your Dad

But, Oh, how he loves you,

There's no doubt

With all his high hopes for you.

I could push you away

I could say I don't want you no more

I could drive you right into the floor

And tell you are useless ;

Get used to it Lady

But I'm big in believing that baby,

You're bigger than that

It's respect for yourself that you lack

And success ; it's a mood that you chose

With every step

I want to grow old with you

To hold your old hand and look back on our youth

I will be strong. Times I might not

I'm only human

I could push you away

I could say I don't want you no more

I could drive you right into the floor

And tell you are useless ;

Get used to it Lady

But I'm big in believing that baby,

You're bigger than that

It's respect for yourself that you lack

And success ; it's a mood that you chose

With every step

So, be free like a bumble bee

Spread wings like a bird

Squawk like a peacock and

Let your voice be heard , it's ok

I have no lock, key or a cage

You've got to want to stay

I won't push you away

I won't say I don't want you nomore

I won't drive you right into the floor

But I'll tell you you're beautiful ;

Get on with it Lady,

Cause I'm big in believing that, Baby,

You're bigger than that

It's respect for yourself that you lack

And success ; it's a mood that you chose

With every step

So take step

It's just step by step
