Few Steps Away
Chasing Dreams: A Journey of Aspiration and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
I'll be there one day, one step at a time
I anticipate reaching a certain point in the future, progressing one step at a time.
I'll never catch you, all I can do is try
I may not catch up to you, but I will make an effort to do so.
You are who I want to be, that will never change
You embody the person I aspire to become, and this desire is constant.
As long as I'm alive you'll be a few steps away
As long as I am alive, you will remain a few steps ahead of me in my aspirations.
When I think of my life, some years ahead
Contemplating my future years, you are a significant consideration, and I hope to reach a point where you are.
I think about you, hope I end up there
You are a part of my thoughts about the future, and I hope to share that future with you.
A hero's a person you want to be Someday
A hero, in my perspective, is someone I aim to become one day.
My hero is me, but he's ten years away
Although my hero is currently myself, the realization of that ideal self is a decade away.
Oh I'll be there one day
Reiteration of the aspiration to reach a certain point in the future.
Oh one day I'll be there
Expressing confidence that eventually, the desired future will be attained.
When those years come around, you will be gone.
Anticipation of a time when the person being pursued will no longer be present.
Forcing me to stop, just leading me on.
Feeling compelled to halt progress due to the unattainability of the pursued person.
I'll be chasing you till I die, all the way through.
Commitment to pursuing the person of interest until the end of one's life.
As those years cruise on by, a part of me will be you.
Acknowledging that, over time, a part of oneself will become like the person being pursued.
Oh I'll be there one day
Reiteration of the aspiration to reach a certain point in the future.
Oh one day I'll be there
Expressing confidence that eventually, the desired future will be attained.
You're the best part of me, and the worst part too
Recognition of the dual nature of the person being pursued—both the best and worst part of oneself.
When I think I've got you, you Start to move.
Frustration with the elusive nature of the person, who keeps moving away when perceived to be captured.
You're in my heart, you run through my veins
Emphasizing the profound connection with the person, existing in the heart and veins.
It frustrates me, but I like the chase
Feeling both frustration and enjoyment in the pursuit of the person.
Oh I'll be there one day
Reiteration of the aspiration to reach a certain point in the future.
Oh one day I'll be there
Expressing confidence that eventually, the desired future will be attained.
