ONE STEP FORWARD

I’m on the front porch,

Seeing you turn the bend,

I light up like a blazing torch,

Immaculate who never offend.

 

Three times the headlights flash,

Another remarkable night went by,

Not a moment, goes in the trash,

Betty, I don’t want you to cry.

 

Stay strong, we will reunite soon,

I will stand by, always by your side,

I am breaking out this cocoon,

My love, my angel, who is my bride.

 

Those responsible will not know who to seek,

I just want to stare in your brown eyes,

Touch your cheek, and hear you speak,

Dancing in the rain and wipe your cries.

 

Before, we even said our vows,

Before, we went on our first date,

We were perfect as our hearts allowed,

Being together always, being my best mate.

 

One step forward, one step back,

I can feel your warmth and your stride,

As your arms around my neck that don’t lack,

Just two people in love burning deep inside.

 

In the kitchen, we played our song,

I can still smell the shampoo in your hair,

The music stopped, as it wasn’t for long,

To see that smile, as I’ll I could do is stare

 

Believe, that everything will be alright,

You rescued and protected me from harm,

The world will change, coming to new heights,

I will always have you and don’t need a lucky charm.
