Don't Step Away

Don’t Step Away

I know a place where we can go
Just around the corner, baby, don’t you know
Where you can let your troubles roll into the sea
And if you’re in the mood for something real
Baby, I could tell you ‘bout the way I feel
But your gonna have to let yourself go
And put your trust in me

Cause it’s a long unforgiving road
I hate to see you face it all alone
Little darling, this girl knows the kind of love you need
Don’t – don’t step away from me – don’t

Out there in the crowd where the race is run
Everybody’s struggling to be someone
They try to chase away the clouds so that they can see
Forget about it, baby, it’s the same old mess
Standing in the way of your happiness
I want to walk you to the bright side of the street

It don’t get better when you run and hide
And keep your troubles bottled up inside
Oh, I want to help to ease your mind,
Baby set you free
Don’t – don’t step away from me – don’t --
Don’t step away now

How long must I wait till I can feel your touch
Let’s spend the night together it could mean so much
But solitary is such a lonely place to be
Just open up your eyes and you’ll understand
Baby, I was hoping that you’d be my man
Oh, baby, you and I could have a taste of something sweet

It don’t get better when you run and hide
And keep your troubles bottled up inside
Oh, I want to help to ease your mind,
Baby set you free
Don’t – don’t step away from me
