This Step Alone - Elliott Yamin

it's taking 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 you and let you be

now i'm standing at this road block
and there's no way around it
i've been waiting for your mind to change
cos i feel so undecided

i saw us break
i watched us fall
it makes 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 know it together
so maybe it's better
i walk alone but you'll always be near

now there's no room for settling
i gotta do this i need too
but this mirror that i'm looking in
there's no reflection without you

cos i saw us break
i watched us fall
it makes 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 sanity i found deep in your arms
it was a false alarm and it burns
yeah it hurts
i lay awake a night
and think of what we could've been
if it weren't
then we chose to go our separate ways
instead of meeting each other half way
and if i had to choose girl
i'll have you by my side

i saw us break
i watched us fall
it makes 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
