Doobie Brothers One Step Closer Lyrics

One Step Closer lyrics

Baby, there's a chance
you ought to take
Chance of a mistake
you gotta make
Maybe I'm mistaken too
to take my chance with you

I need you like a
shadow needs a light
I'll follow you like
morning follows night
When nothin's left ahead of you
I'll be right behind you

Shadows disappear at night
We both know it's a shame
if you should lose one
Why is it so hard to find?
Tell me that you're
right there too

(chorus)
(One step baby)
One step baby
(Two steps maybe)
One step closer
(One step closer)
I'll be there, baby
(I'll be next to you)

Baby, it's a secret
I can't keep
Trouble comes and
suddenly you're weak
I don't believe
you got the strength
to fight this kind of love
I know it's risky now and then
What with all the
what, ifs and the whens
Who is there to say we're wrong
to tell us it can't be?

Come on, baby
please don't go
I'm no heart of
stone and you know
Why is it so hard to do?
Tell me that you're
right there too, baby

Baby, can't you see
we're runnin' late
Can't you see we ain't
got time to wait
Might be that you're scared of me
of something you might feel
Hold on to me, baby
hold on tight
I can take us through
the night all right
Maybe I will stay here too
take my chance with you

Shadows disappear at night
We both know it's a shame
if you should lose one
Why is it so hard to find?
Tell me that you're
right there too

(repeat chorus to fade)
