BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN lyrics : "One Step Up"

Woke up this morning my house was cold
Checked out the furnace she wasn't burnin'
Went out and hoped in my old Ford

Hit the engine but she ain't turnin'
We've given each other some hard lessons lately
But we ain't learnin'

We're the same sad story that's a fact
One step up and two steps back


Bird on a wire outside my motel room
But he ain't singin'
Girl in white outside a church in June

But the church bells they ain't ringing
I'm sittin' here in this bar tonight
But all I'm thinkin' is

I'm the same old story same old act
One step up and two steps back


It's the same thing night on night
Who's wrong baby who's right
Another fight and I slam the door on

Another battle in our dirty little war
When I look at myself I don't see
The man I wanted to be

Somewhere along the line I slipped off track
I'm caught movin' one step up and two steps back


There's a girl across the bar
I get the message she's sendin'
Mmm she ain't lookin' to married

And me well honey I'm pretending
Last night I dreamed I held you in my arms
The music was never-ending

We danced as the evening sky faded to black
One step up and two steps back
