Song Lyrics

"Tread Light"

by Christopher Williams
Album: Side Streets - Live

I locked the back door, shut each window tight / You said the front door was the only way that I could leave it all behind / I had to find you, I knew that it was time / But every creak in that staircase made me want to change my mind / The door flew open pushing in the deep blues and the mean reds / And at that moment I remembered / Every single word that you said / Not knowing where you went was like a letter sealed and never sent / And I kept searching ungrateful for every failed attempt / Chorus / Tread light on the ground beneath your feet / Let go and trust you will find what you need / You always did like the edge / Where the water cut cold and fast / Where one slip by a jealous heart...could erase an entire past / We sat in silence...and for once it was enough for us both / More was said in that moment / Than any words that I ever wrote / Chorus / Then these words fell from my lips as easy as gospel music sings / You knew all along what this journey would bring
