paul young - one step forward lyrics

i’m sending you these letters
across miles and miles of water
tell stevie that i saw his friend
and the mother that i love her
well, i know i haven’t been here long
and i know it seems much longer
but every letter you write back
makes me a little stronger
everybody here has been as many years as me
but only now they realize what they are here to see
so i’ll take my pen and i write you a note
and send it off in a letter
and we’ll hope that writing my troubles down
will make me feel better
one step forward and one step left
i raise my gun and i take my aim
i’m just a p-wn in the government’s game
the first day i was posted
was the longest i have known
i can’t believe the bitterness
the human heart can show
the hatred of another is a blindness in their eyes
all i do is stand between them
wondering why
one step forward and one step left
i raise my gun and i take my aim
i’m just a p-wn in the government’s game
little boy stands with stones in hand
and cold eyes of steel
i wish i could throw my riffle down
and tell them how i feel
well, i know i haven’t been here long
and i know it seems much longer
but every letter you post to me
makes me a little stronger, stronger
