A PIECE OF ME

Hurry up and wait
So close, but so far away
Everything that you’ve always dreamed of
Close enough for you to taste
But you just can’t touch

You wanna show the world,
but no one knows your
name yet
Wonder when and where and how
you’re gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming            
Now you’re feeling more
and more frustrated
And you’re getting all kind
of impatient waiting

[ Chorus ]
We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There’s no need to rush
It’s like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It’s gonna happen and it’s
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
On step at a time

You believe and you doubt
You’re confused, you got
it all figured out
Everything that you always wished for
Could be yours, should be
yours, would be yours
If they only knew

but no one knows your
name yet
Wonder when and where and how
you’re gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you’re feeling more
and more frustrated
And you’re getting all kind
of impatient waiting

[ Chorus ]
We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There’s no need to rush
It’s like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It’s gonna happen and it’s
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
On step at a time

When you can’t wait any longer
But there’s no end in sight
It’s the faith that makes you stronger
The only way you get there
Is one step at a time

[ Chorus ]
Take one step at a time
There’s no need to rush
It’s like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It’s gonna happen and it’s
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
On step at a time

[ Chorus ]
One step at a time
There’s no need to rush
It’s like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It’s gonna happen and it’s
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
On step at a time

I was riding shotgun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car
he’s got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel
the other on my heart
i look around, turn the radio down
he says baby is something wrong?
i say nothing i was just thinking how we don’t have a song
and he says…

CHORUS
our song is the slamming screen door,
sneakin’ out late, tapping on your window
when you’re on the phone and you talk real slow
cause it’s late and your mama don’t know
our song is the way you laugh
the first date "man, i didn’t kiss her, but i should have"
and when i got home…before i said amen
asking god if he could play it again

i was walking up the front porch steps after everything the day
had gone all wrong or been trampled on
and lost and thrown away
got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin’ bed
i almost didn’t notice all the roses
and the note that said…

REPEAT CHORUS

I’ve heard every album, listened to the radio
waited for something to come along
that was as good as our song….

cause our song is the slamming screen door
sneaking out late, tapping on his window
when we’re on the phone and he talks real slow
cause it’s late and his mama don’t know
our song is the way he laughs
the first date "man, i didn’t kiss him, and i could have"
and when i got home, before i said amen
asking god if he could play it again

i was riding shotgun with my hair undone
in the front seat of his car
i grabbed a pen and an old napkin
and i…wrote down our song

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I used this song as my alarm tone because everytime i hear this, it cheers up my day!

Cool song… 

We watch the season pull up its own stakes
And catch the last weekend of the last week
Before the gold and the glimmer have been replaced,
Another sun soaked season fades away

You have stolen my heart

Invitation only, grant farewells
Crush the best one, of the best ones
Clear liquor and cloudy eyed, too early to say goodnight

You have stolen my heart

And from the ballroom floor we are in celebration
One good stretch before our hibernation
Our dreams assured and we all, will sleep well

You have stolen
You have stolen my heart

I watch you spin around in the highest heels
You are the best one, of the best ones
We all look like we feel

You have stolen my
You have stolen my heart
