J. D. Souther – Step by Step Lyrics | Genius Lyrics

Step by Step Lyrics

Heart in hand like a kid on a corner
Waiting for the light to change
'Til he can’t wait any longer
Time speeds up and stops for a minute
But is bating in my brain
Couldn't take it any stronger

Heart to heart
What if I love you
Face to face
I don't want to lose you
Only love can draw the line
Let it fall

Step by step
’Til the world runs out of time
Key you hold in the door it opens
You're gonna make it hard

But you can crack like a mirror
When the rain won't stop
The clouds won't break up
Sun is shinin' in your eyes
Couldn't see it any clearer

Oh, heart to heart
What if I love you
Facе to face
I don't wanna lose
Only love can draw thе line
All I wanna' do is
Step by step
’Til the world runs out of time
Takin’ it step by step
'Til the world runs out of time

Heart to heart
Oh face to face
I don’t wanna lose you
Only love can draw the line

All I wanna do is
Step by step
'Til the world runs out of time
Step by step 'til the world runs out of time
Step by step 'til the world runs out of time

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
