One Step Away

I'm one step away from self-destruction

Yesterday, in a certain section of the Daily Times
The paper read, you will be wed to a friend of mine
But if that's the price I have to pay
I'll accept the crumbs she throws away
'Cause I [I] can't spend another day
Of you being away from me dear
Oh there [there] must be another way
You don't know how I pray, for you here
I'm one step away from self-destruction
(Believe me baby)
Just one step away from self-destruction
(Hey hey hey hey hey)

In my vista I cry all lonely tears
'Cause they have seen the happiness we've had through the years
But now you've gone to another
And now we're away from each other
Oh I, [I] can't spend another day
Of you being away from me dear
Oh there [there] must be another way
You don't know how I pray, for you here
I'm one step away from self-destruction
(Believe me baby)
Just one step away from self-destruction
(Hey hey hey hey hey)
Mmm baby, why did you leave me?
(Leave me, leave me, leave me)
Oh baby, why did you deceive me?
(Deceive me, deceive me, deceive me)

[I] can't spend another day
Of you being away from me dear
Oh there [there] must be another way
You don't know how I pray for you here
I'm one step away from self-destruction
(Believe me baby)
Just one step away from self-destruction
(Hey hey hey hey hey)
Oh, one step away from self-destruction
(Believe me baby)
I'm one step away from self-destruction
(Hey hey hey hey hey)
Just one step away from self-destruction
(Believe me baby)
(Fade out)
