53 Steps Songtext / Lyric

I am 53 steps from my apartment

I have memorized the cracks that age the road

I couldn't quite grasp what my heart meant

But I think that it was telling me to go



Now I'm going up, down spinning round

Trying to communicate

But these words aren't quite what I'm trying to say

I'm coming close, close, close

I feel it in my toes, toes, toes



There's a light that shines when I'm on the road

There's a brand new sky that I need to go

I'm reading signs, signs, signs

And I'm, I'm, I'm seeing patterns in the snow

As the road leads me into the great unknown



17 blocks from the station

And 48 stops from the coast

I could jump with all my clothes on in the ocean

And let the water rock me in her throws






And go up, down spin round leave it up to fate

Like some sailor finding comfort in the waves

I'm coming close, close, close

I feel it in my toes, toes, toes



There's a light that shines when I'm on the road

There's a brand new sky where I need to go

I'm reading signs, signs, signs

And I'm, I'm, I'm seeing patterns in the snow

As I walk into the great unknown



I feel it in my toes, I know I'm coming close

So I'll leave this old town with her saints and her ghosts

I'm coming close, close, close

The signs say I need to go



There's a light that shines when I'm on the road

There's a brand new sky where I need to go

I'm reading signs, signs, signs

And I'm, I'm, I'm seeing patterns in the snow

As I walk into the great unknown



As I walk into the great unknown

As I walk into the great unknown
