Tragedy
Steps (Pop) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In a lost and lonely part of town
Held in time
In a world of tears I slowly drown
Going home
I just can't make it all alone
I really why should be holding you, holding you
Loving you, loving you
Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one to love you
You're going nowhere
Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one beside you
You're going nowhere
Night and day
There's a burning down inside of me, oh
Burning love with a yearning that won't let me be
Down I go
And I just can't take it all alone
I really should be holding you, holding you
Loving you, loving you
Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one to love you
You're going nowhere
Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one beside you
You're going nowhere
Tragedy
When the feelin's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one to love you
You're goin' nowhere
Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and the high just dies
It's hard to bear
With no one beside you
You're going nowhere

Here at night
In a lost and lonely part of town
Held in time
In a wad of tears I slowly drown
Going home
I just can't make it all alone
I really should be holding you
holding you , loving you
Loving you
Tragedy...
When the feelings gone
And you can't go on it's
Tragedy...
When the morning cries
And you don't know why , it's
Hard to bear
With no-one to love you
Your going nowhere
Tragedy...
When you lose control
And you got no soul , it's
Tragedy...
When the morning cries
And you don't know why , it's
Hard to bear
With no-one beside you
Your goin' nowhere

Burnin' love
With a yearning that won't

When the morning cries
And your heart just dies
Hard to bear
With no-one beside you

As a child of the 90s the nostalgia hits hard! I love the fact Faye, Claire and Lisa had their own dads walk them down the aisle β€οΈ
@georgesullivan4473
As far as music videos go this one is right up there. Lisa, the shortest lady in the band is radiant, don't like the tall blonde lady at start as she is pretty fake
@priscillataylor2245
Sheβs so pretty
@clairelouise5478
@@georgesullivan4473Faye is stunning and definitely not fake, she just had her own style.
