ELLIOTT YAMIN LYRICS - This Step Alone

"This Step Alone"



It's taken its toll, girl, the silence is cold

We're stuck at a dead end

And I'm starting to wonder

Did I say something wrong?



I keep asking the question

Will you turn around and come with me?

Or should I read the signs and leave

And let you be?



And now I'm standing at this roadblock

And there's no way around it

I've been waiting for your mind to change

'Cause it feels so one sided



I saw us break, I watched us fall

It made no sense to me at all

You say that you will but then you don't

So I'm gonna take this step alone



In my heart of hearts, I always knew

This jump was way too far for you

You say that you will but then you don't

So I'm gonna to take this step

I'm gonna take this step alone, alone



So give me a reason why you're on the outside

When you should be here?

We're no good together so maybe it's better

I'll walk alone but you'll always be near



Now there's no room for settling

I gotta do this, I need to, oh

But this mirror that I'm looking in

There's no reflection without you



'Cause I saw us break, I watched us fall

It made no sense to me at all

You say that you will but then you don't

So I'm gonna take this step alone



In my heart of hearts, I always knew

This jump was way too far for you

You say that you will but then you don't

So I'm gonna to take this step

I'm gonna take this step alone



The sanctity I found deep in your arms

It was a false alarm and it burns, yeah, it hurts

I lie awake at night

And think of what we could have been if it worked



Then we chose to go our separate ways

Instead of meeting each other half way

And if I had to choose, girl

I'd have you by my side



I saw us break, I watched us fall

It made no sense to me at all

You say that you will but then you don't

So I'm gonna take this step alone



In my heart of hearts, I always knew

This jump was way too far for you

You say that you will but then you don't

So I'm gonna to take this step

I'm gonna take this step alone, alone, alone

I'm gonna take this step alone, all alone
