 Oh this is one  small step I know
 But it's the last  time I'll ever see you're face
 I'll go out on a limb,  we'll hope it won't break
 It's just five words
 I'm figuring out  just what I need to say
 I'm writing it down  and I'm getting it straight
 It's a double edge sword.  It's a very first date.
 It can go both ways.
 What I had was tried and true
 But all I want is you
 So I'm trying  hard  not to fight it
 Light  this fire and stand  right beside it
 If I  go down at least  I'll go in flames
 I'll sing it out  at the top of my lungs
 The choir is small  but it sings a big song
 And If I  go down at least  you know my name.
 Oh this is one  big step I'm sure
 It doesn't mean much  but I can't do much better
 I never thought  it'd be so hard
 To say Hello
 I caught a glimpse  and I never looked back
 I'll throw out the rope  and we'll cut out the slack
 I'm keeping things tight,  keeping it on track
 It's just five words
 What I had was tried and true
 But all I want is you
 So I'm trying  hard  not to fight it
 Light  this fire and stand  right beside it
 If I  go down at least  I'll go in flames
 I'll sing it out  at the top of my lungs
 The choir is small  but it sings a big song
 And If I  go down at least  you know my name.
 Oh this is one  small step I know
 But it's the last  time I'll ever see you're face
 I'll go out on a limb,  we'll hope it won't break
 It's just five words
 Oh this is one  big step I know
