bruce springsteen - one step up lyrics
woke up this morning
the house was cold
checked the furnace
she wasn’t burnin’
went out and hopped my old ford
hit the engine
but she ain’t turnin’.
we’ve given each other some hard lessons lately
but we ain’t learnin’
we’re the same sad story
that’s a fact
one step up and two steps back.
bird on a wire outside my motel room
but he ain’t singin’
girl in white outside a church in june
but the church bells they ain’t ringin’ .
i’m sitting here in this bar tonight
but all i’m thinkin’ is:
i’m the same old story
same old act
one step up and two steps back.
it’s the same thing night on night
who’s wrong
baby
who’s right?
another fight and i slam the door on
another battle in our dirty little war.
when i look at myself i don’t see the man i wanted to be
somewhere along the line i slipped off track
i’m caught movin’ one step up and two steps back.
there’s a girl across the bar
i get the message she’s sendin’
mmm
she ain’t lookin’ too married and me
honey
i’m pretending.
last night i dreamed i held you in my arms
the music was never ending
we danced as the evening sky faded to black
one step up and two steps back
one step up and two steps back
one step up and two steps back.
