The Last Step

It can pull you up, it can bring you down But love, but love can make the world go round You been playing with fire, watch my integrity burn Cuz you know that I'll do for you what you ask in return Climb your way to the top Carried these burdens to watch them drop At the last step that you take from me You think that we've got time But what we had was never mine And the last step that I take will be... into eternity Sweet temptation, it keeps pulling me in And if you ask me for a favor I would fall again All the rights we try to make can't change the wrongs And I think it's time we recognize the path we're walkin on Climb your way to the top Carried these burdens to watch them drop At the last step that you take from me You think that we've got time But what we had was never mine And the last step that I take will be... into eternity I know you been trying to do what you think is right But we both know I can't fill your appetite I don't think that I could ever ask you to change Cuz I just want the good you got to stay the same Climb your way to the top Carried these burdens to watch them drop At the last step that you take from me You think that we've got time But what we had was never mine And the last step that I take will be... into eternity You could build me up, or I could break you down But love, our love, can't save the story now Sometimes what we thought we knew can fall apart But to give you up would be the end, oh the end of my heart Climbed our way to the top Carried these burdens to watch them drop At the last step that we take we see Oh, we never had the time Fate was always going to decide That the last step that we take will be... into eternity Climbed so far And the last step Oh the last step will be Oh the last step will be Into eternity
