One foot in front of the other baby Weaving my way toward you I know a lot about self protection But this kind of thinking is new I've been trying to tone down the old voices That make me jump at a false alarm And I get dizzy with the smell of fear in my face Trying to live unzipped and unarmed Trust Mid-air into the big leap Trust Head-long into the clean sweep I spend a lot of time trying to be clever When the simple truth will do Underneath all of this hot air lives An unruly passion for you Don't want to be married at fifty paces I want to crawl inside your skin And let you get that close to me No matter what shape I'm in No matter where we've been Chorus Bridge: Love could fill an empty cup with a slow leak Love like tar all over my bare feet
