Alison Moyet - Footsteps lyrics

It wont be clean and easy There's more to carry than a case or two I come with a history that I wont forget in a life with you This man's been true to me and I didn't come by him easy Shame shame crying shame Losing more than a family name 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 wont ever want for more Don't let your footsteps fail me You're gonna get sunk if you slip on the way When I say the time is right Go walk this mother out of sight I 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 back I'm tired and I aint proud but I want you more than I ever have Tell me baby, did you think about it? It wont be young and pretty Look around you, you know it Aint nothing new for me I don't get fooled so easy What's good aint gonna be fine six months on down the line Shame shame crying shame Losing more than a family name 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 own
