Step by Step (Original Song)

Step by Step (Written January 2010)

Why can't you see me?
Why can't you see me for who I truly am?
Is it cos of what you see on the outside?
Well guess what
I know it ain't fair to say
But if you look within you may
See that I am trembling inside
It's you I see, it's you I fear
It's you I fear, it's you I see
I'm scared that you might walk out on me
But no more
I've had enough
I'm gonna make you stay and make you love me
And I'm going to get tough

Step by Step
I'll keep your heart within my hands
Step by Step
Oh baby, why can't you just understand
I've done a lot for you and me
But I don't think you see
So I'm gonna be a little more romantic
Step by Step
Every step of the way

Step by Step
I'm stepping forward, there's no turning back
Step by Step
I'm stepping closer to you, then you'll see what I lack
Step by Step
I'm not gonna cry, I'm not gonna pout
Cos I'm stepping up and I'm stepping out
And soon we'll be united
Step by Step
Every step of the way

About the Song:
This song tells the story of a girl whose boyfriend isn't noticing her, and she fears that he's scared of her because of the way she appears on the outside. She reveals that inside, she is the one who's scared; of him walking out on her; so she decides to toughen up and make him love her.

This song is quite short compared to others I have written. There will be music accompanying this song, written by Sam Wyatt and friends.

Oh em gee!!!

Been a long time no see, hasn't it? I honestly can't believe I haven't posted any blogs since July. From now on they will just be song lyrics.

Speaking of songs, I have recorded an acapella version of Promises and plan to do the same for songs with finished music. I won't record any songs that haven't had music written yet (except Why Am I With You).

Here is the acapella version of Promises (although I have added it to the post I already made with the lyrics):
