One Step Closer to Paradise - John Miles

Spend a life time waitin' for a phone to ring

But it all comes down to just the same old thing

So you sit right down until you get that call

But your head keeps knocking off the same old wall

It’s a sad day on my mind

How could you leave my love behind

Now you’re scared to lose it if you take your time

But you’re still walking into the same old line

So you don’t find lovin' with a guarantee

You’d get the next best thing if it was up to me

But it’s a sad day on my mind

How could you leave my love behind

You take me one step closer to Paradise

You give me one more reason to carry on

I’d take your lovin' at any price

So please don’t say you’re leaving

Don’t say you’re movin'

Don’t say you’re movin' on

You take me one step closer to Paradise

You give me one more reason to carry on

I’d take your lovin' at any price

Stay with me now say you’ll stay with me

You take me one step closer to Paradise

You give me one more reason to carry on

I’d take your lovin' at any price

Say you’re not leaving

Say you’re not leaving
