One Step Too Far
(Dido)
You can sleep forever
But still you will be tired
You can stay as cold as stone
But still you won't find peace
With you I feel I'm the meak leading the blind
With you I feel I'm just spending wasted time

I've been waiting
I'm still waiting
I've been waiting
I've been waiting
I've been waiting
I'm still waiting
But with you
It's always one step too far
(one step too far)

You can whine to the bone
But still you won't be full
You can look down on the world
But still you won't find love
You won't find love

(Maxi)
Only with mellow are you thin enough to slide through
Only with mellow are you thin enough to slide through
If the sun or the moon should give way to doubt
(They would immediately go out)
One swallow don't make a summer
(But tomorrow has to start somewhere)
Only with mellow are you thin enough to slide through
Only with mellow are you thin enough to slide through
(Don't let nothing ride you)
One swallow don't make a summer...

(Dido)
I've been waiting
I'm still waiting
But with you
It's always one step too far
(one step too far)

(repeat until end)
Written by Dido, Maxi Jazz, Sister Bliss & Rollo
Dido - Lead vocals
Maxi Jazz - Rapping
Sister Bliss - Keyboards
Strange sound effects fade into a high-pitched keyboard track and rhythmic bassline, as the vocals join in. Maxi's rap is taken from the beginning of 'Liontamer' found later on the album.
This song reached number 6 in the UK charts in 2002. The single version was a heavily remixed version of this track.
