One Foot On The Ladder

This old world won't give me half a chance

Baby, you're the world to me

But now you won't even spare a passing glance

And I feel my soul start to bleed

I know I've let you down. Your mind is made up

But let me prove to you I can be more than enough

I've got one foot on the ladder

Taking one step at a time

I don't know how high I'll go

But I know I'm gonna climb

If I get one more tomorrow, I won't waste another sunrise

If you turn and look my way, I won't let you walk on by

Girl, you know the weight of my shame

And you still pour out your love

Every time I hear you whisper my name

You fill up my cup

I rise above the lies where I've been in my sin

I keep my eyes to the skies and where I'm going

I've got one foot on the ladder

Taking one step at a time

I don't know how high I'll go

But I know I'm gonna climb

If I get one more tomorrow, I won't waste another sunrise

If you turn and look my way, I won't let you walk on by

I've got one foot on the ladder

Taking one step at a time

I don't know how high I'll go

But I know I'm gonna climb

If I get one more tomorrow, I won't waste another sunrise

If you turn and look my way, I won't let you walk on by

Baby, will you look my way

Please don't walk on by
