Small Steps

Walking down a path I’ve known so well
Where the heat of the sun is hidden by the trees
The noise of the distant cars
Sounds like the hollow sound of that lonely sea
And I pretend your hand is in mine
I pretend our steps are together
I pretend everything is fine
I pretend that we’re lost in each other
For a moment I catch your stare
And the moment lasts forever
I pretend everything is fine
I pretend that we’re lost in each other
If I knew a way back, I wouldn’t take it
This path is all I’ve known
This path is all I’ve been left with
My feet take me to the edge
Out from under the trees
The sun it splits my eyes
And I don’t have to pretend
