Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida movie - A Step Too Far lyrics

rate me

Song by Elton John/Heather Headley/Sherie Scott<br /><br>

It's so strange he doesn't show me more affection than he needs<br>

Almost formal, too respectful, never takes romantic leads<br>

There are times when I imagine I'm not always on his mind<br>

He's not thinking what I'm thinking, always half a beat behind<br>

Always half a beat behind<br>

<br>

I'm in every kind of trouble, can't you tell, just look at me<br>

Half ecstatic, half dejected, all in all I'm all at sea<br>

Easy turns I thought I wanted, fill me now with chilling dread<br>

You can never know the chaos, of a life turned on it's head<br>

Of a life turned on it's head<br>

<br>

Take a little time to panic, shake off your complacent state<br>

I know all I ever wished to, of a life destroyed by fate<br>

It's so strange you never notice anything but where you are<br>

Step outside your gleaming prison, or is that a step too far<br>

Or is that a step too far<br>

<br>
