A Few Steps Away Lyrics[Intro]
Tommy used to live on the second floor
I guess he doesn't live there, anymore
Mary used to live in the room downstairs
And no one ever saw her behind that door

[Pre-Chorus]
And everyday
They'd pass each other in the hall
And every night
They'd sit alone behind that wall
[Chorus]
And love
Was just a few steps away...

[Verse 1]
Came a day, one afternoon
Tommy met Mary
She was leaving her room
They walked together through the summer heat
And said goodbye
At the end of the street
And all that night
He lay awake in bed
Thought of the girl
That he just met
And down below
She lay awake, too
Neither of them knowing
Just what to do

[Chorus]
And love
Was just a few steps away...

[Bridge]
And isn't it strange?
Two people never knowing
That the other is there
And isn't it life?
So near
And yet so far
And almost at your door
But isn't it sad?
When the one
That you want
Is almost at your door
But you
You never know...
[Solo]

[Verse 2]
They fell in love, but who can say
What might have happened
On another day
Tommy didn't want to push too fast
And Mary didn't know
If this love could last

[Pre-Chorus]
And everyday
They'd pass each other in the hall
And every night
They'd sit alone behind that wall

[Chorus]
And love
Was just a few steps away...

[Outro]
Just a few steps away...
Oh, love...
Just a few steps away...
A few steps away...
A few steps away...
Ohh...
