A Step Too Far (elton John F/ Heather Headley, Sherie Scott)

It's so strange he doesn't show me more affection than he needs
Almost formal, too respectful, never takes romantic leads
There are times when I imagine I'm not always on his mind
He's not thinking what I'm thinking, always half a step behind
Always half a step behind

I'm in every kind of trouble, can't you tell, just look at me
Half ecstatic, half dejected, all in all I'm all at sea
Easy terms I thought I wanted, fill me now with chilling dread
You can never know the chaos, of a life turned on it's head
Of a life turned on it's head

I am certain that I love him but a love can be misplaced
Have I compromised my people in my passion and my haste?
I could be his life companion, anywhere but where we are
Am I a leader? Am I a traitor? Did I take a step to far?
Did I take a step to far?

Did I take a step to far?

I am certain that I love him but a love can be misplaced
Did I take a step to far?
So strange he doesn't show me more affection than he needs
Did I take a step to far?

I am certain that I love him but a love can be misplaced
Did I take a step to far?
