One Step Closer to You

by Michael Franti

I had the opportunity the other night to see Michael Franti live, and I would like to dedicate this song to the small handful of people that have touched my heart in a way that only they individually could, whether it was for a short season or if I am lucky enough to still have them in my life. I would strongly encourage all of you to download this song and listen to the lyrics. It will remind you of the power of love and the importance of cherishing the people important to you. Spread the love.

Here are some of the lyrics:

I've been down for far too long
'Til my faith was nearly gone.
I never knew somebody just like you
Be a friend I could call my own

'Til I let go of a broken heart
I let go to an open heart
I let go of my broken dreams
I let go to the mystery
And I believe in miracles
I believe in the spiritual
I believe in the one above
I believe in the one I love.

I take one step closer to you
I just take one step closer to you
Even when I've fallen down
My heart says follow through
I take one step closer to you.
