Autumn, I love this time of year
Not quite Winter and still some sunny days
But the leaves they are a turning
Changing colours from green to red, yellow and brown
Trees shredding their leaves all about you on the ground
Autumn, I love this time year

One more step
A crawling step
Willing to fall
Angry to get up
Baby cries and hold on
Like a garden waiting on the rain

One more step
The biggest step
Baby walking and smiling
Shaking still standing
Sweet tears dripping
So determine to walk
Not afraid to fall

One more step
A dream comes true
Gusty storms on the way
It cannot be last forever
A burning desire to walk
Aiming so high not afraid

One more step
Willing to fall
Angry to get up
You must no cry
You're a very talented being
When the pain hidden behind the clouds please don't despair
Something precious on the air
Just one more step away
