One Step Forward, Two Steps Back
Slow blue waltz. It's Life's dancing instructions: One step forward, two steps back; and sometimes you jump to the side.
Brand new old songs of the '30s, '40s, '50s and '60s.
Lyrics
I take one step forward and then
I take two steps backward again
I can go on walking this way forever.
Forever.
It’s once more into the breech
It’s one more win out of reach
It’s got one more lesson to teach
And I’m learning…I’m learning.
Once I was young, just like you,
Footloose and strong, just like you.
Go anywhere, loaded for bear, just like you.
Just like you.
Once I had dreams, I was free
Then life intervened, wait and see
Just as it’s true I was just like you
By and by, you’ll be just like me.
I take one step forward and then
I take two steps backward again
I can go on walking this way forever.
Forever.
And I jump left out of the claws
And I jump right into the jaws
And I never know what it was
But I’m learning…I’m learning
Not to care.
