"One Step Closer To Paradise" lyrics - JOHN MILES

Spend a life time waitin' for a phone to ring,
But it all comes down to just the same old thing.
So you sit right down until you get that call,
But your head keeps knocking off the same old wall.

It's a sad day on my mind,
How could you leave my love behind.

Now you're scared to lose it if you take your time,
But you're still walking into the same old line.
So you don't find lovin' with a guarantee,
You'd get the next best thing if it was up to me.

But it's a sad day on my mind,
How could you leave my love behind.
You take me one step closer to Paradise,
You give me one more reason to carry on.
I'd take your lovin' at any price,
So please don't say you're leaving.
Don't say you're movin'
Don't say you're movin' on.

You take me one step closer to Paradise,
You give me one more reason to carry on.
I'd take your lovin' at any price,
Stay with me now say you'll stay with me.

You take me one step closer to Paradise,
You give me one more reason to carry on.
I'd take your lovin' at any price.
Say you're not leaving,
Say you're not leaving.
