A step too far Letra

It's so strange he doesn't show me

more affection than he needs

Almost formal too respectful

never takes romantic leads

There are times when I imagine

I'm not always on his mind

He's not thinking what I'm thinking

Always half a step behind

Always half a step behind



Oh,oh,oh,oh



Oh,oh,oh,oh

Oh,oh,oh,oh



Radames:



I'm in every kind of trouble

Can't you tell, just look at me

Half ecstatic,half dejected

All in all I'm all at sea

Easy terms I thought I wanted

Fill me now with chilling dread

You could never know the chaos

Of a life turned on it's head

Of a life turned on it's head



Oh,oh,oh,oh





Radames and Amneris:



Oh,oh,oh,oh

Oh,oh,oh,oh

Oh,oh,oh,oh



Aida:



I am certain that I love him

But a love can be misplaced

Have I compromissed my people

In my passion and my haste?

I could be his life companion

Anywhere but where we are

Am I leader? Am I traitor?

Did I take a step too far?



Amneris, Radames and Aida sing their verses at once.

The last line of each verse is repeated.



Aida:





Oh,oh,oh,oh



Aida & Radames:



Oh,oh,oh,oh



Aida, Radames & Amneris:



Oh,oh,oh,oh

Oh,oh,oh,oh

Oh,oh,oh,oh

Oh,oh,oh,oh

Oh,oh,oh,oh

Did I take a step too far!
