steady-steady

Steady, steady, you know when you're ready

It's a long road walking into the sun

The heat can make you lose your head

Your sense of direction

Oh, steady, steady

I am ready to be the one

I can take for better, but for worse I can't condone

Most of our "for good" just make me ache to be alone

Oh, oh

How long is forever?

I'm swimming in this dress, a child in her mother's clothes

This ring around my finger's like a chain around my throat

Oh, oh

Are you so sure you've tamed me?

Steady, steady, you know when you're ready

It's a long road walking into the sun

The heat can make you lose your head

Your sense of direction

Oh steady, steady

I am ready to run

We talked about the west, 'bout packing up our lives and hopes

Ain't it a shame with time our dreams turned into jokes?

Oh, oh

I won't let that be us

Nostalgic for the good times like our dreams walked out on us

Like we woke up in an empty bed here and now now we're stuck

Oh, oh

I'll chase them down alone

Don't just watch me go, you fool

Run with me, keep up, keep up, keep up

It's not you I'm leaving

Are you listening?

I just can't take the rut, the rut

I won't say I do, 'til you promise me

Though we're gray we can stay young and wild and free

Young and wild and free

And it you can't, don't blame me

Steady, steady, you know when you're ready

It's a long road walking into the sun

The heat can make you lose your head

Your sense of direction

Oh steady, steady

We weren't ready
