Lyrics
TWO STEPS
c. 1996 By David T. Green and Bill Carson
There she was standing next to me
I heard “Last Call”, I was just about to leave.
Would she like to dance or would she just say no?
That’s one thing I guess you’ll never know.
(chorus) I was two steps from leaving
Right there from the start.
Now I’m two steps
From leaving with her heart.
I asked her name as we crossed that floor
She just smiled like we’ve both been here before.
Her jeans are tight and her legs are long
I hold her close – am I coming on too strong?
(chorus) I was two steps from leaving
Right there from the start.
Now I’m two steps
From leaving with her heart.
(2nd chorus) How many times have I used the line
That a night like this just shouldn’t end? Her arms around me but still so far apart
Am I two steps from leaving with her heart?
The light comes on and she pulls away
We’re holding hands and we don’t know what to say
If I steal a kiss would it be a crime?
Will she take a chance one more time? (repeat chorus)
