One may walk over the highest mountain one step at a time.

Baby Step Back
Now it looks to me like the same old place
In the sky it looks like rain
The same old town with the same old streets
The address has not change
You can find me there
With the door shut tight
And the one wish that remains
Baby step back baby step back
Either step up or step back
No you know I dont write no bad checks
I have no wish to repent
Ive seen a few
But whatever I do
I dont cause no accidents
Whiskey and wine help me pass the time
I dont leave no evidence
Baby step back baby step back
Either step up or step back
Baby step back baby step back
Either step up or step back
Still I dont kneel down
I was born to fight
So youd best leave me alone
Maybe Ill get much more than I need
Or much less than I should own
Last of all let me say it again
Either step up or step on
Baby step back baby step back
Either step up or step back
Baby step back baby step back
Either step up or step back
Baby walk back baby walk back
Either walk on or walk back
Baby step back ...

Mountain Of Hope
He had climbed the highest mountain this
World had ever known.
He had climbed the highest mountain
On maps it can’t be shown.
It was a mountain of tears, suffering and pain
And no ones life would ever be the same.
Then a second mountain was built
And it was higher than the first.
This mountain was built with the
strongest material known to man.
HOPE! In our hearts and our minds it will stand.
Each time hope is fed, there lies another bed.
And as each bed is filled
The mountain gets higher still.
But it was he who climbed the mountain
Of tears, suffering and pain.
And because of it he took away the shame.
And this mountain came to be.
because CHRIST Made a sacrifice
for you and for me.
And if we was able to put HOPE
Into a color scheme
It would be the most beautiful
Rainbow that you’ve ever seen.
So every time you see a rainbow
Without a beginning and without a end
It’s because hope is building up
And that’s a guarantee my friend.

Step Inside
Harrys on the run, hes got good reason
Since he bought a gun, hell never sleep again
Widow sleeps alone, she never shuts her window
Mandy knows whats fun, she just dont know whats right
Come on, step inside
Come on, step inside, dont walk on by
Step inside
Come on, step inside
Sequins on his shirt, stevies up for dancing
Always been a flirt, carol steps in line
History to the bone, memory to the marrow
Old an weary man, treads a travelled road
Come on, step inside
Come on, step inside, dont walk on by
Step inside
Come on, step inside
Standing in the sun, trolling cold maria
A hare krishna drum sounds distantly in time
The blood comes off like grime, in the wash hand basin
Just another crime, reason with her
Step inside
Come on, step inside, donmt walk on by
Step inside
Come on, step inside, dont walk on by
Step inside
Come on, step inside

Cause YOU Believe
You can climb the highest mountain on your own
Cause you believe in yourself and nothing more
You can dive into the deepest area of sea all alone
Cause you believe in yourself and that’s all
You can fly to the highest altitude without error
Cause you believe in yourself and nothing more
You can jump into the deepest of abyss without tremor
Cause you believe in yourself and that’s all
You can be the one to prove the wrongs
Cause you believe in yourself and nothing more
You can walk the unlighted path staying strong
Cause you believe in yourself and that's all.

One Step At A Time
I couldnt help but overhear your conversation
When you told her that you owned her heart and soul
You say youve got her wrapped around your finger
But theres something about angels you should know
Chorus:
Shell walk away one step at a time
Itll take you by surprise
Youll think it happened over night
Itll be too late when you realize angels dont fly
They walk away one step at a time
Dont think Im trying to mind your business
Its a full time job just trying to mind mine
But I once had an angel just like her
And if Id treated her right shed still be by my side
Repeat chorus
Itll be too late when you realize angels dont fly
They walk away one step at a time

Step By Step
(lead vocal - lenny zakatek)
I was just a joker in a serious game
I didnt have the heart to play
But sooner or later
Ill find a reason to throw it away
Risin on the crest of a natural wave
That never seems to break my way
Im livin without it
But I got to do something about it
Step by step little by little
Step by step take it line by line
Move move move, move a little closer
I was just a runner in a one horse race
Livin on the dont pass line
Sooner or later
I got to lose cause Im wasting my time
Lady luck must have been a wonderful girl
Shes never been a friend of mine
Im living without her
But I still got that mountain to climb
Step by step little by little
Step by step rake it line by line
Move move move, move a little closer
Step by step the deal is mine

One Small Step
So many people
Need to go so many miles
How do we move them
To where the answer lies
Reach out to the ocean
Beyond the stars that shine
Weve got to take one small step in time
If we are the dreamers
Then the world must be the dream
Driven to question
All the things weve never seen
We search the horizon
Looking for a sign
Weve got to take one small step in time
One step beyond
All our hopes and our passion
There is the light of the universe flashin
All that it takes is one leap of faith
One small step, (one small step)
One small step in time
Deep in the darkness
(deep in the blackness)
Theres a wind that never dies
(theres a wind that never dies)
Out in the vastness
(out in the vastness)
Theres a road across the sky
(a road across the sky)
Out there is the reason
That we were meant to find
Weve got to take one small step in time
Weve got to take one small step in time
(one small step, one small step)
One small step in time
(one small step, one small step)
One small step in time
(one small step, one small step)

I Am The One For You
Hoo
Hoo
I am the one for you.
The possibilities are endless
The number of things that you could do to me
Baby you can drive me senseless
Make me what you want me to be.
Cos' you take me to the (take me) highest mountain (take me)
Take me to (take me) the deep blue sea (take me)
You can't get enough of my kind of love
You're really doing something to me.
I am the one for you
Nothing that you or anybody else can do
Hoo
I am the one for you
Am i getting through getting through to you?
My mind's been working overtime
Thinking of ways i'm gonna get to you
Rain or shine you'll be mine
And you know it'll be soon
Cos' i'll give you (give you) love that (lovin') you never dreamed of
I'll give you (give you) that and even more(lovin')
Face up to the fact
It's time to react
You'll be giving like you never before.
I am the one for you
Nothing that you or anybody else can do
Hoo
I am the one for you
Am i getting through getting through to you?
Hoo

Am i getting through getting through to you?

Nothing that you or anybody else can do

Nothing that you or anybody else can do

I Had A Chance!
i had a chance
to feed the hungry,
to stop all the wars...
to house the homeless.
to name undiscovered stars,
to know the depths of the oceans....
to fly with the hawk,
to discover fire again.
to cure the disease,
to replant the forests.
to take the secrets of nuclear
power and hide them away...
to take in the orphans,
to climb the highest mountain.
to tear down the pyramids,
step by step...
i had a chance
to rewrite history...
but i chose instead
to sit by your bed,
a shadow hidden by darkness....
waiting, in the stillness,
for the door of your heart
to open again...
may God
forgive me for that!

A Poem For Someone Out There
it is only when i keep the rules
concerning distancing that we shall feel the
essence of our union,
after night of our fusion, i need to walk away the following morning
i trek upon a mountain and stand at its highest peak to once more see more of you,
it is only this when i become convinced that i need and love you
and that i must, as a matter of grace and giving,
that i must leave and then forget you, because i know your pain
when i am with you, that gut that gluts in there.
it is only the distance that heals my pain, time waters it,
and then i become dignified as a man.

Long Roads
Where have I known you before?
Seems like lifetimes, maybe more
Our time together goes so fast
And so slowly when that time has past
I want to walk on the long roads with you, Love These days it's all that I can think of
And the love runs so deep, these nights
I can't even sleep
I want to walk on the long roads with you
I have a place where we can quench our thirst
But we'll have to swim an ocean, climb a mountain first
The mountains high, the valleys wide
Oh just sit back and enjoy the ride
Behind us the road is fading fast
While in front of us a light shines that says the fate's been cast
And the road we now must climb
Comes so easily one step at a time

Step By Step
Its alright, its not wrong
To sometimes feel
Youre just hanging on
On those days when
Your feelings are low
Dont hold back
Just let those feelings show
If you want my time and devotion
Youve got to give me
Some of your emotion
Its not too much, too much to ask
If you want this love to last
Born with open eyes
But youre blinded by confusion
Born with strength
Lets do it step by step
Into tomorrow
We can make it if we try
Just talk to me, walk with me
Theres no reason why
Lets do it step by step
Into tomorrow with our open eyes
So come on talk to me
Just walk with me
You can do it if you try
One step, one step at a time
One heart beatin with mine
Nothing gained, nothing ventured
Nothing won, no risk, no loss
In this world of indecisions
Theres a bridge we all must cross
Born with open eyes
But youre blinded by confusion
Born with strength

Waterfront
Get in, get out of the rain
Im goin to move on up to the waterfront
Step in, step out of the rain
Im goin to walk on up to the waterfront
Said, one million years from today
Im goin to step on up to the waterfront
Get in, get out of the rain
Come in, come out of the rain
So far, so good, so close, yet still so far
So far, so good, so close, yet still so
So far, so far, so far

Step in, step out of the rain
Im going to walk on up to the waterfront

Im goin to move on up to the front
Im goin to walk on up to the front
Im goin to live on up by the front
Im goin to walk on up to the front
Come in, come out of the rain

Come in, come out of the rain
Move on up, to step on up
Walk on up, live on up
Far away, far away, far away
So, walk away, so far, I walk away
So, so, walk away, up to the waterfront
Up to the waterfront
So far, so far

Walk Into Light
Close in, move out to where you want to go.
Theres a crowd out there handclapping slow.
Were all powered up, switched on, the rig is tight.
Step into joy. walk into light.
Never mind what some people say.
Theyre going to love you anyway.
Shake off that nervous twitch and feel your strength.
Stand astride the width and walk the length.
Those super-troopers fired and burning bright.
Step into joy. walk into light.
Stand tall and be yourself.
You can do it for your health.
Maybe a circus ring, a disco floor.
Do like we do. and do some more.
A crowded office or a party night.
Step into joy. walk into light.

Take a step back in time
Take a step back in time
Where you could leave your door unlocked and not think about thieves
Take a step back in time
where you can take you time
and no rushing to do something or go somewhere
Take a step back in time
where nobody dies
Take a step back in time
to see how a life was lived
Take a step back in time
to fix a mistake
Don't you wish you could take a step back in time

Step Out
What she said
She said to me
Take me high on a mountain side
She was dressed up in leopard skin
And her soul would never be denied
I met her down the disco in a beat up car
She was burning down the road
She looked just like a star with a Jaguar
She needs to lighten her load
And when you might
Think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight
You might
Think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight
What I said I said to her
I'm alive when you walk that way
Can you hear what I can hear?
It's the sound of a brand new day
She met me down a disco in a beat up car
I was burning down the road
I can be a star in a Jaguar
I need to lighten my load
Because you might think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight
You might
Think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight
My whole life still sinking in the water
I need a ship not your sweet lip tonight
You might
Think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight
You might
Think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight

Leap Of Faith
He opened the door and walked away,
Sometimes a selfless step is all it takes,
From the mountain, he can watch it all burn,
Welcome friend, to the point of no return
Once in a life, you can find a time to see,
And you get to turn it down, turn around, temporary sanity
And then the mountain disappears without a trace,
All it took, was a sudden leap of faith
(homeward, let your spirit rise, )
Darling, Im waiting for you
(homeward, one step at a time)
(homeward, watch it like a child)
When will I reach the ocean
(Im filled with mixed emotion)
(Ill wait for you)
(Ill wait for you)
Im waiting for you baby
(Ill wait for you)
(Ill wait for you)
How and why?
And the bough broke back to sea(? )
He was overcome, by how it happened all so easily,
And as he stood there, with the moonlight on his face,
He was stunned by a sudden leap of faith.
Darling, Im waiting for you
(homeward, one step at a time)
(homeward, watch it like a child)
When will I reach the ocean,
Moving in slow motion now
(you know its the truth)
(youve done all a man can do)
{long instrumental, scat break}
Homeward, let your spirit rise,
Homeward, one step at a time,
Homeward, watch it like a child,
Homeward, let your spirit rise,
Homeward, one step at a time,
Homeward, watch it like a child,
Homeward

and in the land of rape and honey
