"One Step Away" lyrics

"One Step Away"

I waited for you, baby, on that hot summer night
I was so hot for ya, you were nowhere in sight
You thought I was foolin' so your heart took a flight
I guess we're star crossed lovers, we just can't get it right

Two years later, I was out on the town
I saw you on the street and my heart hit the ground
I guess love is like a chain and you're always bound

It's better late than never
Girl, am I gettin' through?
It's better late than never
Than livin' without you

I'm one step away
We're ships in the night, but tonight, you ain't gonna get away
I'm one step away
The timing is right this time and I'm gonna make you stay
One step away, one step away

I'm callin' on you baby like a blast from the past
I heard your heart was broken, I knew it wouldn't last
Some things are forever and some things burn out fast

It's better late than never
Girl, am I gettin' through?
It's better late than never
Than livin' without you

I'm one step away
We're ships in the night, but tonight, you ain't gonna get away
I'm one step away
The timing is right this time and I'm gonna make you stay
One step away, one step away

It's better late than never
Girl, am I getting through?
It's better late than never
Than livin' without you

I'm waitin' for you, baby, on this hot summer night
I'm so hot for ya, but you're nowhere in sight
You still think I'm foolin' so your heart took a flight
We're star crossed lovers, we just can't get it right

I'm one step away
We're ships in the night, but tonight, you ain't gonna get away
I'm one step away
The timing is right this time and I'm gonna make you stay
One step away
One step away
One step away
One step away
I'm one step away
We're ships in the night, but tonight, you ain't gonna get away
I'm one step away
The timing is right this time and I'm gonna make you stay
