Baby Steps and Building blocks
She tumbled backwards down the entryway stairs
Each step she fell showed how much he cares
Drove until there was no longer a familiar sight
Not the way a woman deserves to end her night
Don’t care, don’t call, don’t waste your time
On sympathy to wipe up another drunken crime
Wasted away without a chance to ever go back home
Can’t stay tethered to yesterday, finally time to roam
Cause tomorrow's holding open the door where it seems
You can live out your days in a love you held in your dreams
Don’t need excuses, there’s no need to explain, never mind the clocks
Past is past, don’t fret, time stands still, baby steps and building blocks
Your wheels won’t rust, baby let then come to a rest
Come lay next to me and put your head on my chest
If you want to run, let's do it together; but honey don’t run from this
I knew from the moment my eyes locked with yours, sealed it with a kiss
Things could have been better for you; I know life’s been rather unfair
But this is coming from a man full of love, one who will always be there
I can’t do anything about yesterday, except make tomorrow be so totally bright
That it makes it impossible to see past the love that’s waiting here for you tonight
Cause tomorrow's holding open the door where it seems
You can live out your days in a love you held in your dreams
Don’t need excuses, there’s no need to explain, never mind the clocks
Past is past, don’t fret, time stands still, baby steps and building blocks
Let’s build our future baby!
