From the recording The Great American Dream (Debut Album)
Lyrics
One Step Back (Lyrics)
(Lyrics & Music by Rocky Michaels)
Have you ever noticed how the wind whistles through the trees
Or how the rain reflects the morning colors
Can you sometimes taste the ocean air as you head down to the sea
Do you feel the shade as the clouds begin to cover
You can have your eyes wide open and you can have it all and still not know
For every two steps forward take one step back and stare
And take in all the beauty life can show
He paid the bills and she fed the kids, they never made time for each other
And drifted apart with lonely hearts inside
Focused on a single goal of getting through each day
When all they needed were the arms open wide
You can have your eyes wide open and you can have it all and still not know
For every two steps forward take one step back and stare
And take in all the beauty life can show
Do you recall the way she looked at you and smiled
Do you remember how it felt to have her touch
It’s all around to be found for rediscovery
And it really doesn’t take very much
To just have your eyes wide open and understand the need as you go
For every two steps forward take one step back and stare
And take in all the beauty life can show
