Lyrics for Footsteps by Alison Moyet
Songwriters: Glenister, Peter; Moyet, Alison
Don't let your footsteps fail me
You'll be on your own
And heaven only knows
You're gonna get wet if you dip in the water
Shame, shame crying shame
And it's a waste of time
You're gonna get wet if you dip in the water
You're gonna get wet if you dip in the water
Six months on down the line
You're gonna get sunk if you slip on the way
That I won't forget in a life with you
And I didn't come by him easy
It won't be young and pretty
I don't get fooled so easy
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't let your footsteps fail me
Now here I am on a roundabout
When I say that the time is right
You're gonna get sunk if you slip on the way
Don't let your footstep falter
Oh, have you found it?
When I say that the time is right
Go walk this mother out of sight
Did you find what you're looking for?
Don't let your footsteps falter
You're gonna get sunk if you slip on the way
Be sure what you take me for
Ain't nothing new for me
You know shame, shame crying shame
Did you think about it?
And I won't ever want for more
Look around you, you know it
I'm tired and I ain't proud
And I won't ever want for more
When I say that the time is right
Go walk this mother out of sight
You're gonna get sunk if you slip on the way
What's good ain't gonna be fine
When I say that the time is right
Be sure what you take me for
Tell me baby
Losing more than a family name
This man's been true to me
You're gonna get wet if you dip in the water
You know you change your mind
Don't let your footsteps falter
Don't let your footsteps falter
Be sure what you take me for
But I want you more than I ever have
Don't let your footsteps fail me
See the road where I lived my life
I come with a history
Don't let your footsteps fail me
And I won't ever want for more
If I go with you there's no turning back
And I won't ever want for more
Losing more than a family name
Be sure what you take me for
Go walk this mother out of sight
I didn't plan to meet you
