Five Steps Ahead

To be by your side to be your ally to be helping you is all I ever wanted to do in this life with you and Ive tried to see the world through your eyes and sometimes I swear I do but there are days when the haze draws a curtain over my brain and I get a slow start once again (Chorus) And you're always walking five steps ahead of me into some abyss that I can't see just like my mama just like the world 5 steps ahead of this lost little girl lost little girl and I cant lose you I stumble and try to keep up So, you know I'm still there I haven't wandered off I'm so scared to get lost cause its cost me so much in the past every time that I do Although It's not clear Im still here And I never want to slow you down Just look over your shoulder and you'll see you'll never ever lose me In spite of what I said even though you're always 5 steps ahead (Chorus) Cause you're always walking five steps ahead of me into some abyss that I can't see just like my mama just like the world 5 steps ahead of this lost little girl lost little girl and I never wanna lose you when you're five steps ahead five steps ahead five steps ahead five steps ahead Words and Music by Maryam El-Sherif 2026 Flying Eggs Music
