Always the First Steps

It's always the first steps
That are the hardest to take
Because what we fear most
Is the first mistake
Take one step sideways
From the path you know well
Another step sideways

You can start something truly new
By choosing to do so
And something can emerge from nowhere
It's always the first steps
That count

It's always the first steps
That set the pace
You have only fragments
Link them into a chain

Move one step further
In some oblique way
Another step further

You can start something truly new
By choosing to do so
And something can emerge from nowhere
It's always the first steps

You can start something wonderful
If you have it in you
And the thing that you have to do
It's always the first steps

The origins are in the margins
The origin in our heartbeat

Always the first steps
The hardest to take
Always the first steps
That set the pace
