Lyrics
EVERY STEP I TAKE
Craig Moreau
I wake up to the sound of a morning train
Ten thousand yesterdays running through my ragged brain
Put on my warmest coat step out and light a smoke
Start to sing along with the pouring rain
With every step I take I pass through another day
When first i stumble and then I fall
Its the same damn date and time
Trips up my troubled mind
Gets me every time I stop
Well I’ve been meaning to sweep out this empty room
And all the ghosts here made of dust
But something down in my soul
Says I may need those ghosts to hold
In case your memory starts to rust
So here I go again right back down that road I’ve been
Horizons just beyond my grasp
I fear there's nothing more
Than just what I’m searching for
Picking up the pieces of my past
Now the day is all but gone
someones turned the streetlights on
I start to feel like I’m wasting time
Down the road there's a lighted door
Inside there's nothing more
Than more of nothing I surmise
Every step I take I pass right through another day
When first I stumble and then I fall
Its the same damn date and time
Trips up my troubled mind
Gets me every time I stop
I wake up to the sound of a morning train
ten thousand yesterdays running my ragged brain
