One Step Forward Songtext
von Even as We Speak

You leave your perfume on my clothes
You leave your footprints in my bed
Your mother was a lunatic
Who shot your father in the head

And I just want to know
Are we getting closer now
And when the morning comes
It clears my head
And you′re beautiful again

One step forward for two steps back
It's a tender trap or something like that
She′s half crazy and I fall flat
All the time


Dead insects on the windowsill
A glass of wine a box of shells
The wind was a mute roar
While her engine rattled like scrap metal
The sun was in my eyes
I'm in my CIA disguise
Write me a letter, give me a sign
I'm hanging out most of the time

One step forward for two steps back
It′s a tender trap or something like that
She′s half crazy and I fall flat
All the time

One step forward for two steps back
It's a tender trap or something like that
She′s half crazy and I fall flat
All the time

One step forward for two steps back (two steps back)
It's a tender trap or something like that (something like that)
She′s half crazy and I fall flat
All the time

One step forward for two steps back (two steps back)
It's a tender trap or something like that (something like that)
She′s half crazy and I fall flat (I fall flat)
All the time
All of the time
