Footsteps (Live: In Session)

Footsteps - Alison Moyet

It won't be clean and easy

There's more to carry than a case or two

I come with a history that

I won't forget in a life with you

This man's been true to me

And I didn't come by him easy

Shame shame crying shame

Losing more than a family name

Don't let your footsteps falter

You're gonna get wet if you dip in the water

Be sure what you take me for

And I won't ever want for more

Don't let your footsteps fail me

You're gonna get sunk if you slip on the way

When I say the time is right

Go walk this mother out of sight

I didn't plan to meet you now

Here I am on a roundabout

See the road where I lived my life

If I go with you there's no turning back

I'm tired and I ain't proud

But I want you more than I ever have

Tell me baby did you think about it

It won't be young and pretty

Look around you you know it

Ain't nothing new for me

I don't get fooled so easy

What's good ain't gonna be fine

Six months on down the line

Shame shame crying shame

Losing more than a family name

Have you found it

Did you find what you're looking for

You know you change your mind

And it's a waste of time

And heaven only knows

You'll be on your own
