[Intro] [Instrumental] [Verse 1] Plans stack up beside the wall, Cold coffee, daylight thinning out. I say, “Soon”—then let the minutes crawl, The clock keeps moving without a sound. One small sentence slips away, A yellow page, a date undone. If I can’t carry all today, I’ll start with one. [Chorus] One step, no promise, just one step. My hands are still; my eyes are open. One step, no rescue, no regret, A little green through winter’s motion. [Verse 2] Wet leaves gather by the curb, The notebook holds what I postponed. A blade of grass beside the road Keeps its color on its own. I don’t have to win the season, I don’t have to fix it all. I can stand here for a moment, I can answer when I’m called. [Bridge] Spring can wait, the plans can wait, Summer’s word can change with time. Under all this weather passing, Something living keeps its line. [Final Chorus] One step, I hear my breath return. One step, I lift my eyes and stay. One step, let tomorrow take its turn, Today I move a little way. [Outro] One step. Still here.
