Footsteps Lyrics

It won't be clean and easy
There's more to carry than a case or two
I come with a history
That I won't forget in a life with youThis man's been true to me
And I didn't come by him easy
Shame, shame crying shame
Losing more than a family nameDon't let your footsteps falter
You're gonna get wet if you dip in the water
Be sure what you take me for
And I won't ever want for moreDon't let your footsteps fail me
You're gonna get sunk if you slip on the way
When I say that the time is right
Go walk this mother out of sightI didn't plan to meet you
Now here I am on a roundabout
See the road where I lived my life
If I go with you there's no turning backI'm tired and I ain't proud
But I want you more than I ever have
Tell me baby

Did you think about it?It won't be young and pretty
Look around you, you know it
Ain't nothing new for me
I don't get fooled so easyWhat's good ain't gonna be fine
Six months on down the line
You know shame, shame crying shame
Losing more than a family nameDon't let your footstep falter
You're gonna get wet if you dip in the water
Be sure what you take me for
And I won't ever want for moreDon't let your footsteps fail me
You're gonna get sunk if you slip on the way
When I say that the time is right
Go walk this mother out of sightYeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't let your footsteps falter
You're gonna get wet if you dip in the water
Be sure what you take me for
And I won't ever want for moreDon't let your footsteps fail me
You're gonna get sunk if you slip on the way
When I say that the time is right
Go walk this mother out of sightOh, have you found it?
Did you find what you're looking for?
You know you change your mind
And it's a waste of time
And heaven only knows
You'll be on your ownDon't let your footsteps falter
You're gonna get wet if you dip in the water
Be sure what you take me for
And I won't ever want for moreDon't let your footsteps fail me
You're gonna get sunk if you slip on the way
When I say that the time is right
Go walk this mother out of sight
