Stepping Stone

She was standing on a bridge
No one there to catch her fall.
I could see she was a lot like me running wild but not free.
Better friends there never were
Two hearts true
Two paths unknown
I held tight but she let go
That bridge was just her stepping stone.
Angels fly here on Earth
Though they rarely know their worth
So much misery she never felt at home
Her heart did ache, her soul did moan.
Better friends there never were
Two hearts true
Two paths unknown
I held tight but she let go
That bridge was just her stepping stone.
No mother here, her father jailed
A sorrowful heart is hard to Quell
We laughed and danced, but she was lost inside.
Just like the darkness in her deep brown eyes.
Better friends there never were
Two hearts true
Two paths unknown
I held tight but she let go
That bridge was just her stepping stone
I asked her once about the Heavenly Host
The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
She said dust I was and dust I’ll be
I only pray He grants peace to me
Better friends there never were
Two hearts true
Two paths unknown
I held tight but she let go
That bridge was just her stepping stone.
La dee da la dee da dee da
La-dee da
La dee da dee da
La dee da la dee da dee da
La dee da la dee da dee da
That bridge was just her stepping stone
That bridge was just her stepping stone
I was just her stepping stone.
