As I took my first step
you were right there by my side
you said that I was better than this
Baby, you told me I would fly.
I looked up to the top
and said its such and awful long way
you took my hand and told me
we would make it there someday.
We held on as we stumbled
never letting go when the other would fall
I promised to you, Baby
that we would make it past this all.
We were almost to the top
when the stairs began to crumble
Baby I tried my hardest
but I couldn't pull you over.
I looked up to the light
and looked back down at you
I didn't want to go alone
but I didn't know what to do.
Now I stand here at the top
looking back on what should have been
I wish that I could fix what is broken
I was so happy way back then.
You promised to be there for me always
to pick me up and pull me through it all
so baby when I step off of the top
will you come to catch me when I fall.
