One Step Ahead

One step ahead of you
Stay in motion, keep an open mind
Love is a race run 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

La da-de-da-dah (etc)
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...
