Take a Step Back
-Verse 1
Right now we’re a thousand miles apart
But somehow you left yourself inside my heart
I think about what you said, before you left
The words are still inside my head
I’ll make things better if I can, for only you
Just to make this right again
If I scream loud enough, can you hear me now?
I know if we try, we’ll fix this somehow
(Chorus)
I’ll scream these words so loud
I’ll be heard across the world
I just hope you’re listening
Just hear me out this time
And in the end you’ll find
I never meant to cross the line
I’ll take a step back
I swear this time
We’ll be fine
-Verse 2
Right now you’re gone, and yet still here
Your smile so perfect, I can see so clear
I think about the way you are, before you left
I never thought you’d be so far
But I made a wish tonight, for only you
In hopes it would make things right
If I pray long enough, will my prayer come true?
Can I rely on faith to bring me closer to you?
(Chorus)
I’ll scream these words so loud
I’ll be heard across the world
I just hope you’re listening
Just hear me out this time
And in the end you’ll find
I never meant to cross the line
I’ll take a step back
I swear this time
We’ll be fine
(Bridge)
Distance has given me time to think
What if the answer’s right in front of my face?
I tried to fix it all in time
But it seems that I've lost the race
But I won’t give up so easily
I’ll have the answer when you get back
I swear there won’t be an end
As soon as I get us back on track
(Chorus)
I’ll scream these words so loud
I’ll be heard across the world
I just hope you’re listening
(Are you listening?)
Just hear me out this time
And in the end you’ll find
I never meant to cross the line
Let’s take a step back
And do it right this time
And I swear, I swear we’ll be fine
