"One Step Forward" lyrics - THE DESERT ROSE BAND

You held me up, held me down,
Made me crazy then you brought me around.
Were my darkness and my light,
You were my blindness and my sight.
Were my shelter and my storm,
Made me cold then you made me warm.
You were my fever and my cure,
Made me doubt and you made me sure.

One step forward and two step back,
Nobody gets too far like that,
One step forward and two steps back,
This kind of dance can never last.

[guitar]

You were my hope and my fear,
You were my laughter and my tear.
Were my destiny and my faith,
Kept me moving and you made me wait.
Were my weakness and my power,
You were the thorn in the flower,
You were my sunshine and the rain,
Made me feel so good, brought so much pain

Now one step forward and two step back,
Nobody gets too far like that,
One step forward and two steps back,
This kind of dance can never last.

[guitar - steel]

And we never really meant for each other,
We were never really meant to last.
In the years that we danced together
Each step forward we took two steps back,
Each step forward we took two steps back

Now one step forward and two step back,
Nobody gets too far like that,
One step forward and two steps back,
This kind of dance can never last.

One step forward and two step back,
Nobody gets too far like that,
One step forward and two steps back,
This kind of dance can never last.
