One Step Closer

Simple Minds


theres no other way 
in the multitude 
population, neighborhood 
i look for you 
do you look for me 
its the only way you're gonna 
get topography / typography / up off the feet ?
gotta settle down and watch the dust 
gonna read the book all the rules that must 
sets the time to set the pace 
you took me closer 
one step closer to that place 
you take me one step closer 
and now i know we're there 
its better now than ever 
now i know you'll stay 

and another way 
its a different world 
theres a shining light 
and a darkened world 
and it waited takes a path 
to a different place, different time 
different vibe? 
you take me one step closer 
and now i know we're there 
its better now than ever 
now i know you're here 
you take me one step closer 
and now i know we're there 
much better now than ever 
and now i know you'll stay 

found another way, another added trip/attitude? 
theres a population, in the neighborhood 
i'm lookin for you 
you look for me 
its the only way to get 
to where we want to be 
you take me one step closer 
and now i know we're there 
much better now than ever 
and now i know you'll stay 
you're taking me one step closer 
and now i know we're there 
its better now than ever 
and now i know you'll stay with me 
you're taking me one step closer 
and now i know you're there with me 
much better now than ever 
and now i know you're here
