Ian Hunter - Following In Your Footsteps Lyrics
(ian hunter/mick ronson)Some folk leave courage,Some folk leave you hopeWhy am I out here hanginLike a fool at the end o my ropeSome folk leave you wisdom,Some folk leave you signsYou can never be sureWhat went on beforeLife is just a matter of timePicture of you,Clouding my viewIm following in your footsteps,Tryin to make some sense of it allMaybe its a sign of weakness,But thats where my footsteps fallIm following in your footsteps,Tryin to hang on to your dreamsYou never got what you wantedSo I never got what I needIm following in your footsteps,cos thats where the footsteps leadSomeone must have given me anger,Someone must have given me hateOr why would I stand here shakin,When theres so many chances to takePictures of you,Climb into viewIm following in your footsteps,Tryin to make some sense of it allMaybe its a sign of weakness,But thats where my footsteps fallIm following in your footsteps,Watchin my children growTheyre following in my footstepsTakin it on the roadWere following in your footstepscos thats where the footsteps goWere following in your footsteps, yeahcos thats where your footsteps go
