One Step Ahead - Split Enz

[woodface]

One step ahead of you
stay in motion, keep an open mind
Love is a race won by two
Your emotion, my solitude
If I stop I could lose my head
So I'm losing you instead
Either way I'm confused
You slow me down, what can I do?
There's one particular way I have to choose

One step ahead of you
Always someone makes it hard to move
She says, Boy I want you to stay
But I save it all for another day
If I stop I could lose my head
But I'm ready for romance
Either way I'm confused
I don't know what I'm s'posed to do
I can only stay
One step ahead of you

Stop, I confess sometimes
I don't know where I'm going
Part of me stays with you,
I'm slowing down, what can I do
It's hard to stay one step ahead of you

One step ahead of you
Time is running out
Catching up with you
One step ahead of you
When I hold you close
Can I really lose?
One step ahead
Only one step ahead
She's one step ahead of you

Nice lyrics. Now I'll have to see if I can find the song. :)

Shows off my new icon, too. ;)

Very pretty icon!

If you go looking for the song, I advice you take a live version by Neil Finn or Crowded House. I'm not sure how the original by Split Enz sounds (well they're all sang by Neil Finn but Split Enz sometimes has a bit of a dated sound)
