One Step Away

I sleep with a prayer
In my heart for you
And a song of praise
Rests upon my lips
Our love was built
On a tower of trust
Straight from the heart
Not for riches or such
Now we’re standing here
With a veil between each other
Lies, neglect, and my eyes
Have told of your new lover
If only you would talk with me
Understanding is in sight
It’s strange how you defend your wrongs
With more fire than you do your rights, so
(Oh tell me) How can we be so far apart
Standing only one step away
I won’t allow my love to bind you
Only the hand of life
Can restore your heart
To hold you now
Would only wreck your life
Experience will show you
Where love lies
With an honest heart
And understanding mind
Your point of views
I hold as if they were mine
But here we stand
Two strangers we seem
We need an understanding
But you don’t want that with me, so
(Oh tell me) How can we be so far apart
Standing only one step away
(Oh tell me) How can we be so far apart
Standing only one step away
Now we’re standing here
With a veil between each other
Lies, neglect, and my eyes
Have told of your new lover
If only you would talk with me
Understanding is in sight
It’s strange how you defend your wrongs
With more fire than you do your rights, so
(Oh tell me) How can we be so far apart
Standing only one step away
