Following in Your Footsteps — текст песни (Ian Hunter)

(ian hunter/mick ronson)



Some folk leave courage,

Some folk leave you hope

Why am I out here hangin

Like a fool at the end o my rope

Some folk leave you wisdom,

Some folk leave you signs

You can never be sure

What went on before

Life is just a matter of time



Picture of you,

Clouding my view

Im following in your footsteps,

Tryin to make some sense of it all

Maybe its a sign of weakness,

But thats where my footsteps fall

Im following in your footsteps,

Tryin to hang on to your dreams

You never got what you wanted

So I never got what I need

Im following in your footsteps,

cos thats where the footsteps lead



Someone must have given me anger,

Someone must have given me hate

Or why would I stand here shakin,

When theres so many chances to take



Pictures of you,

Climb into view

Im following in your footsteps,

Tryin to make some sense of it all

Maybe its a sign of weakness,

But thats where my footsteps fall



Im following in your footsteps,

Watchin my children grow

Theyre following in my footsteps

Takin it on the road

Were following in your footsteps

cos thats where the footsteps go

Were following in your footsteps, yeah

cos thats where your footsteps go
