One Step Out Is a Thousand
Navigating Love's Crossroads: One Step Out Is a Thousand
Lyrics
You talk to me each word staccato
You communicate with me, each word delivered abruptly
You didn't even make them rhyme
Your words lack a poetic structure, no attempt at making them rhyme
The front door is getting closer
The entrance is nearby
But I'm not on my way in this time
I'm not heading inside this time
One step out is a thousand
Stepping out once leads to numerous steps in the wrong direction
In the wrong direction
Choosing the incorrect path has significant consequences
Let's unfold the map in the glove box
Let's examine the map stored in the glove compartment
What's our first turn
Deciding on the initial turn
And the next one
And considering subsequent turns
When I go down the road of losing you
When I confront the possibility of losing you
All the traffic stops
All movement and progress come to a halt
Oh the heart break and the mistakes
Experiencing heartbreak and acknowledging past mistakes
A million moments in one thought
Countless memories condensed into a single thought
All the shouting made the trees still
Loud noises result in stillness, even the trees and stars are affected
And the stars my ceiling
Nature becomes my surroundings
Let's unfold the map in the glove box
Let's refer to the map in the glove box again
What's our first turn
Determining the initial direction
And the next one
And considering subsequent directions
In the morning I will meet you
In the morning, a meeting is anticipated on the other side of the door
On the other side of the door
Consulting the map again for directions
Let's unfold the map in the glove box
Determining the initial turn once more
What's our first turn
Possibly contemplating just one additional turn
Maybe just one more
An uncertain consideration of an extra turn
