"Two Steps Back" lyrics

Yeah
Ooh, ooh
Craig David
Hey-yeah, yeah, yeah
Check it

You know, I'm the kinda guy that does it 9 to 5
Workin' real hard, 'cause it's the way I live my life
Back home, just me and you, girl, all alone
With no one interruptin'
Switch off the phone
But I could be that other guy
Who comes home late night after night, then tells you lies
So, why you trippin' out on me, girl, all the time?
When every day, it's only you that's on my mind, oh

Every time we take one step forward
You take two steps back
Every time it's right, you bring left back, oh
Girl, you really ought to think about it
'Cause there's really no doubt about it (What?)
You know I've been there for you and that's the truth
Every time we take one step forward
You take two steps back
Every time it's right, you bring left back, oh
Girl, you really ought to think about it (Oh)
'Cause there's really no doubt about it (Oh-oh)
You know I've been there for you and that's the truth

You know, you're the kinda girl that doesn't need to front
Keep it real, let me know just what you want
Sometimes, you just don't know when to stop
You worry so much over nothing
You're just losing what you've got
Now, can't you see there's no other girl?
I think you're the most beautiful woman in this world, yeah
But you say I don't appreciate you
And I don't know how to treat you
We don't do the same things we did no more

Every time we take one step forward
You take two steps back
Every time it's right, you bring left back, oh
Girl, you really ought to think about it
'Cause there's really no doubt about it
You know I've been there for you and that's the truth (I've been there for you)
Every time we take one step forward (Baby)
You take two steps back (See, I've been always there for you)
Every time it's right, you bring left back, oh (You bring left back)
Girl, you really ought to think about it (Ooh)
'Cause there's really no doubt about it (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
You know I've been there for you and that's the truth

Remember, it wasn't that long ago
You told me that you love me so
Don't forget all the nights we shared
When you told me, girl, just how much you cared
Remember that you could be led astray
But that's the way players play
I'm not that kinda man
Why can't you understand, 'cause I
Want you to trust in me?
Baby girl, can't you see
You're only gonna mess things up?
You've done enough, why can't you stop this?
You're gonna lose what's good for you
And it's the last thing you wanna do
Won't find another like me, oh

Every time we take one step forward (Every time)
You take two steps back (Oh)
Every time it's right, you bring left back, oh (You)
Girl, you really ought to think about it (Yeah)
'Cause there's really no doubt about it (No)
You know I've been there for you and that's the truth
Every time we take one step forward
You take two steps back
Every time it's right, you bring left back, oh (Same old thing again)
Girl, you really ought to think about it (You)
'Cause there's really no doubt about it (Yeah)
You know I've been there for you and that's the truth (Know)
Every time we take one step forward (Every time)
You take two steps back (It never fails, baby)
Every time it's right, you bring left back, oh (Oh, oh-oh)
Girl, you really ought to think about it
'Cause there's really no doubt about it
You know I've been there for you and that's the truth (No)

Every time
Every evening, mm
