My First Car

My first car was an old bag of parts
Through thousands of miles, it always did start
And the day that I sold it, I feared it would see
If I'd broken down, you're more reliable than me
My first house was a ramshackle mess
Built on top of a hill where the crops slowly dressed
We bought it for more than we thought it should be
Turned out to be more than we'd ever need
'Cause we're one small step away from it
Give a little time
Just one small step and everything,
It'll be just fine
Slow deep breaths, close your eyes
In the knowledge it works out right
You're one small step behind
And it won't be the same as the first love I gave
It lasted no longer than a fortnight of days
It ran off with someone that offered much more
'Cause I'm the rarest of souls and I won't hide no more
'Cause we're one small step away from it
Give a little time
Just one small step and everything,
It'll be just fine
Slow deep breaths, close your eyes
In the knowledge it works out right
You're one small step behind
Oh my love, you are my only one
Bathe me in autumn sun
Wake me up when winter's ending
Oh my love, you are my only one
Bathe me in autumn sun
Wake me up when winter's ending
I've been cold, I have been frozen through
Warmth has nowhere to hold, nowhere on you
Just one small step away from it
Give a little time
Just one small step and everything,
It'll be just fine
Slow deep breaths, close your eyes
In the knowledge it works out right
You're one small step
Oh you're one small step behind
You're one small step down the line
