A Step Behind
it's that you didn't come back
It's not the pain that you felt
but the obvious ?
i was always a step behind
i was always a step behind
I wasn't watching you go
but the way that you went
with a kiss on the cheek
and a cheque for the rent
i was always a step behind
i was always a step behind
It wasn't really your fault
cos you made it mine too
while you were lookin' around
i was lookin' at you
i was always a step behind
i was always a step behind
The gentle release
of laying me down
and the way that it felt
to be high on yourself
finally waiting into the muse (?)

I haven't re-learned to walk
it's hard to learn now
and it wasn't the fall
it was the pushing it back
i was always a step behind
i was always a step behind
oooh i didn't see it comin' from behind
i was always a step behind
