Every Little Step
Return Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Away from all your nightmares
And take the easy way out
It's gone take a lot of time,
And all the tears you'll find in heaven
You stumble and you fall, this could be your call
Every little step could be your ticket to heaven
Every little step could be your highway to hell
Every little move you make is to a new dimension
Every little step is the first on the way
So you wanna kiss the sky
But the speed will take you nowhere
There is no easy way out
No one can be you; you're the only player in this game
It's a game called life, place your bets it's time
[Chorus]
It's you
And every little step you take
Yeah it's you
And every little move you make
The lyrics of Return's song "Every Little Step" convey a message about the journey of life and the importance of taking each step mindfully. The song begins by illustrating how individuals attempt to fly away from their nightmares and take the easy way out. However, the song suggests that the process of overcoming difficulties is not something that can be accomplished instantaneously. It is going to take a lot of time, patience and perseverance to overcome the obstacles of life. The lyrics describe how one may stumble, and fall, but these situations can be a turning point, the opportunity to rise above failures and succeed in life.
The chorus of the song expresses how every little step, every move, every decision we make in life, will shape and define our destiny, symbolized by either a ticket to heaven or a highway to hell. The lyricist further explains that each step an individual takes, no matter how minor or trivial, will lead them to a new dimension, a new or improved stage of life.
