You always been a little slow 
hung up on yourself most times 
you seem to watch the world going by through 
someone else's eyes 
your own reflection always seems to blind you 
but one day you awoke to find 
all the people that tried to love you were gone 
you were the only one left behind 
 
You were just one step behind 
you were just one step 
behind 
living one step behind 
and you missed it... 
 
You didn't put no kids through college 
or lavish love upon a wife 
so you sit alone with all your pretty things 
waiting for the phone to ring 
you saved a whole lot of money 
you spent a whole lot of time 
waiting for your greater future to get here 
but you couldn't catch it 
 
You were just one step behind.... 
And you missed it 
 
Now you wake up on the sidewalk 
with your car keys in your hand 
the sunrise burning holes in your eyes 
but you missed it 
you chased away your princess 
waiting for a queen 
now your princess is gone 
with another man 
and you miss her 
lord how you miss her 
living just one step behind 
 
You wake up and it's over 
you done spent your life alone 
you don't remember that it even happened 
don't realize it's gone 
you were just one step behind
