My friend Steve he wears his heart on his sleeve
|
All the girls seem to leave him lonely
|
Well, I'm a nice guy with a shoulder to cry on
|
With one bit of advice only
|
You gotta inch your way, working every day
|
Showing her all your love
|
Lighten her load but keep it on the road and you'll grow it
|
So don't you blow it
|
|
Take another baby step, up the mountain of love
|
It's a long, long ways and so high up above
|
Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb
|
That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time
|
|
Icarus standing on the shore with his dad, saying that he wants to fly
|
Dad says son I can hook up the wings if you promise not to go too high
|
But he forgot what he said and he lost his head
|
He headed straight for the sun
|
That sealed his fate, he was a little too late for returning
|
Now he's burning
|
|
Take another baby step, up the mountain of love
|
It's a long, long ways and so high up above
|
Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb
|
That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time
|
|
Keep a walking. Little bitty steps are gonna work it brother
|
Keep a walking right on
|
Putting one foot in front of the other, take it
|
|
Take another baby step, up the mountain of love
|
It's a long, long ways and so high up above
|
Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb
|
That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time
