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 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 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 take this step

I'm gonna take this step alone alone alone

I'm gonna take this step alone all alone
