Step by step

Verse 1

A quiet room and fading light

I trace the days I left behind

Patience sits beside me now

Like a trust I can't define

A stranger's warmth inside my chest

Grows steady as the hours unwind

Chorus

Step by step I'm rising

Through the soft and the loud

Every note I'm finding

A little less afraid of the sound

(mm, mm-hmm)

A little less afraid now

Verse 2

The hush before a gentle storm

Reminds me that the calm is real

I press my hands against the pause

And let the quiet learn to feel

Each echo turning into warmth

Until the tender starts to heal

Chorus

Step by step I'm rising

Through the soft and the loud

Every note I'm finding

A little less afraid of the sound

(mm, mm-hmm)

A little less afraid now

Bridge

Slowly the room unfolds

Like a morning coming true

And everything I couldn't say

Becomes the light I'm walking through
