I walked behind you down the lane
Every step erased the pain
I wanted to speak, but words were shy
So I let the silence pass us by
Your shadow stretched, the evening fell
And in my heart, the truth would swell
Every moment, close but far
Like chasing light from a fading star
Timid steps, but my heart runs wild
First love gentle, soft, and mild
Even if you never know
These timid steps will always show
The night was calm, the streetlights dim
But all I saw was you within
I prayed that time would move so slow
So I could stay and never go
Every moment, close but far
Like chasing light from a fading star
Timid steps, but my heart runs wild
First love gentle, soft, and mild
Even if you never know
These timid steps will always show
If courage comes another day
I’ll find the words I couldn’t say
Timid steps, but my heart runs wild
First love gentle, soft, and mild
Even if you never know
These timid steps will always show
Timid steps…
Toward you.
