ONE STEP FORWARD
2
I'm sending you these letters across miles and miles of water.
3
Tell Stevie that I saw his friends and mother that I love her.
4
Well, I know I haven't been here long and I know it seems much longer
5
but every letter you write back makes me a little stronger.
6
Everybody here has seen as many years as me.
7
It's only now they realise what they are here to see.
8
So I'll take my pen and I'll write you a note and send it off in a letter
9
and we'll hope that writing these troubles down will make me feel better.
10
One step forward oir one step left.
11
I raise my gun and I take my aim.
12
I'm just a pawn in the government's game.
13
The first day I was posted was the longest I have known.
14
I can't believe the bitterness the human heart can show.
15
The hatred of another is a blindness in their eyes.
16
All I do is stand between them wondering why.
17
One step forward oir one step left.
18
I raise my gun and I take my aim.
19
I'm just a pawn in the government's game.
20
Little boy stand with stones in hand and cold eyes of steel.
21
I wish I could throw my rifle down and tell him how I feel.
22
Well, I know I haven't been here long and I know it seems much longer
23
but every letter you post to me makes me a little stronger, stronger.
