I've seen the heart of darkness,
Let's just say, i crossed over that line,
Held hands with the hopeless,
In too deep on that ride, went around one more time,
When you're standing on the edge,
You don't look down,
Till you ready and willing to fly,

Now i'm one step closer,
With my arms open wide,
Yeah, i'm one step closer,
And i'm willing to try this time,

I hitched a ride with forgiveness,
In that river of emotion,
I went down a third time,
I spent the night with the living,
Took a chance looked inside,
Didn't know who i'd find,
Standing on the corner of hello and goodbye,
All alone it's there i made up my mind,

I'm, one step closer,
With my arms open wide,
Yeah, i'm one step closer,
And i'm willing to try,

I'm sick of giving up,
With a little luck,
I'm gonna get out of here,

When you're standing on the edge,
You don't look down,
Til you're ready and your willing to fly,

Now i'm one step closer,
With my arms open wide,
Yeah, i'm one step closer,
And i'm willing to try, yeah,
I'm one step closer,
Yeah, i'm one step closer.
