Joaquin De Castro - A Few Steps Away

Across the field I hear you singing in the rain
My lonely songbird wondering if things could change
You're walking everyday along the royal road
An easy path that seldom follow
But now I'll never forget
How your words had touched my heart
Rewinding back until the start
I feel the weight of every year
Unrelenting until you're near
My tears blending in with the rain
But then I noticed you're a few steps away
I freeze up standing here unsure what to say
My heartbeat skips and in the moment I thought
Of only one word
I look up and turn to say hello
Politely waving back you smile so I know
You'd like to stay with me and journey on the road
With my umbrella we could both enjoy your song
Upon the path that no one travels
And when I nodded back with yes
I noticed as we go along
You're adding lyrics to your song
But it's left ambiguous
A sort of kinder loneliness
Respecting I'm here with you
Side-by-side we're just a few steps away
Beauty underneath the cold of the rain
Our old regrets are swept away by the wind
We pause and let go
Someday we both know
The path is ending just few steps away
I realize there's so much more to you than you say
Our hearts slow down the whole world comes to a crawl
In moments I knew
And slowly I start to sing along
Even when you're just a few steps away
Moving forward I'm still frozen in place
But someday maybe you'll return to the road
So until that day
I'll look back and say goodbye
