One Foot In Front Of The Other

Well my father looked for love in a whiskey glass 
And women with sad eyes and empty hearts 
I still remember the day he passed 
Drinking like the end of a draught 

My mother left home when I was a kid 
She promised it was nothing that I said or did 
I ran upstairs to my room and hid 
I don’t think I ever came out 
To see what it was all about 

So I’ll put one foot in front of the other 
And my heart upon my sleeve 
I’m gonna take a leap of faith 
And find the courage to believe 
Tell my wife how much I love her 
And im sorry I had to leave 
But I’m gonna walk until I find my feet 

Well I worked at the brewery 9 to 5 
Every damn day of my adult life 
I never made friends never socialised
No one really knew me at all 

I was never taught to love so I couldn’t teach 
A son that was always out of my reach 
Like when he nearly drowned I just stood on the beach 
Staring like a slack jawed Fool 
I didn’t do nothing at all 

So I’ll put one foot in front of the other 
And my heart upon my sleeve 
I’m gonna take a leap of faith 
And find the courage to believe 
Tell my wife how much I love her 
And im sorry I had to leave 
But I’m gonna walk until I find my feet 
Yeah I’m gonna walk until I find my feet 
Oh I’m gonna walk until I find my feet
