gladys knight & the pips – one step away lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
mmmm
(mmmm)

[verse 1]
i sleep with a prayer in my heart, baby
under song, a praise rests upon my lips
our love was built on a tower of trust
straight from the heart, not for riches or such (ooh)

[pre+chorus]
now we’re standing here, with a veil between each other
lies, neglect, and my eyes have told of your new lover

[chorus]
if only you would talk with me
understanding is in sight
it’s strange how you defend your wrongs
with more fire than you do your rights
so how can we be so far apart
standing only one step away?

[verse 2]
mmm, i won’t allow my love to bind you
only the hand of life can restore your heart
to hold you now would only wreck your life
experience will show you where love lies
[pre+chorus]
with an honest heart, and understanding mind
your point+of+views i hold as if they were mine

[chorus]
but here we stand
two strangers we seem
we need an understanding
but you don’t want that with me
so how can we be so far apart
standing only one step away?

mmm (oh, tell me)
mmmm (how can we be so far apart)
standing only one step away?

[pre+chorus]
now we’re standing here, with a veil between each other
lies, neglect, and my eyes have told of your new lover

[chorus]
if only you would talk with me
understanding is in sight
it’s strange how you defend your wrongs
with more fire than you do your rights
so how can we be so far apart
standing only one step away?
mmm (oh, tell me)
mmmm (how can we be so far apart)
standing only one step away?

tell me, tell me, tell me (oh, tell me)
how can we be so far apart
standing only one step away?
