“Every Step of the Way”

Ow!

I used to see you on the avenue
You were the girl that let me follow you
You used to hang out in the alleyway
You sewed a button on my shirt one day

I asked around until I found your name
And underneath the arches in the pouring rain
I said you (Yeah, you!)
I want you
Every step of the way

I know that things are gettin’ better
I know it’s gonna be okay
So baby, don’t go
I ain’t gonna let ya
I wanna be with you
Every step of the way
Every step of the way

Do you wanna, do you wanna, do you wanna dance?
Take a chance, baby, take a chance
I’ll be with you every step of the way
I’ll even show you how to strut one day
Ain’t got a girl, and it’s a cryin’ shame
’Cause I can’t figure out who’s to blame
I want you (Yeah, you!)
I want you
Every step of the way

I know that things are gettin’ better
I know that things will be okay
So baby, don’t go
I ain’t gonna let ya
I wanna be with you
Every step of the way
Yeah, every step of the way

[break]

I know that things are gettin’ better
I know it’s gonna be okay
So baby, don’t go
I ain’t gonna let ya
I wanna be with you
Every step of the way
Every step of the way

(Every step of the way) Every step of the way
(Every step of the way) Every step of the way
(Every step of the way) Every step of the way
(Every step of the way) Every step of the way
(Every step of the way) Every step of the way
(Every step of the way) Every step of the way
(Every step of the way) Every step of the way
(Every step of the way) Every step of the way
(Every step of the way) Every step of the way
(Every step of the way) Every step of the way
