Lyrics

I loved a man, not the kind of love you’re thinking about
he was a brother to me
now if I saw him in a crowd I couldn’t pick him out
one foot in front of the other can keep you from falling down
there are some things you can learn from your brother
and some you only learn for yourself
the streets I forgot their names
and how we got there I forget the same way
the alchemy of turning strangers into friends
is a science I practiced but don’t understand yet
one foot in front of the other can keep you from falling down
there are some things you can learn from your brother
and some you only learn for yourself
like how falling can make you grow stronger
how loss can make you know what you really have
how nostalgia can make you grow fonder
of things you had forgotten you had
one foot in front of the other…
