One Foot in Front of the Other

Well my father looked for love in a whiskey glass

And women with sad eyes and empty hearts

I still remember the day he passed

Drinking like the end of a draught

My mother left home when I was a kid

She promised it was nothing that I said or did

I ran upstairs to my room and hid

I don’t think I ever came out

To see what it was all about

So I’ll put one foot in front of the other

And my heart upon my sleeve

I’m gonna take a leap of faith

And find the courage to believe

Tell my wife how much I love her

And im sorry I had to leave

But I’m gonna walk until I find my feet

Well I worked at the brewery 9 to 5

Every damn day of my adult life

I never made friends never socialised

No one really knew me at all

I was never taught to love so I couldn’t teach

A son that was always out of my reach

Like when he nearly drowned I just stood on the beach

Staring like a slack jawed Fool

I didn’t do nothing at all

So I’ll put one foot in front of the other

And my heart upon my sleeve

I’m gonna take a leap of faith

And find the courage to believe

Tell my wife how much I love her

And im sorry I had to leave

But I’m gonna walk until I find my feet

So I’ll put one foot in front of the other

And my heart upon my sleeve

I’m gonna take a leap of faith

And find the courage to believe

Tell my wife how much I love her

And im sorry I had to leave

But I’m gonna walk until I find my feet

Yeah I’m gonna walk until I find my feet

Oh I’m gonna walk until I find my feet
