5 Steps

I don't know how much longer
You're gonna be here
So I say my prayers every night
One for my mother, one for my father
And one for the love of my life

So if you decide to leave today
Then leave tomorrow at the door
And take only half of yesterday
And forget all hope for the present
'Cause it just went away

We were five steps from eternity, eh
Four steps, four steps past love, ah
And three wishes, said it, you know it, you know it
From touching the heavens above
Soldiers

Another day is gone
Another night now dawn
Waitin' patiently, hope that you'll return
But not before long
Why'd you say goodbye?
I still feel your presence in my bed at night

Five steps from eternity
We were four steps, four steps past love, ah
And three wishes, we were three wishes
From touching the heavens above

Said we were five steps from eternity, eh
Four steps, four steps past love, ah
And three wishes, said it, you know it, you know it
From touching the heavens above
Sol-

Now I sit in silence and begin to think
As laughter echoes through the air
I can't get you off my mind (can't get over you)
But a whole new love, I could never bear, no (ooh)

So now I lay me down to sleep (now)
And I pray my Lord my soul to keep
And if I die before I wake
Then I promise I'll be there for you always

We were five steps from eternity
We were four steps, said, four steps past love, eh
And three wishes, you know it, sing it
Touching the heavens above

Five steps from eternity
We were four steps, said, four steps past love, eh
And three wishes, so don't you know? Should've known it
Touching the heavens...
