Story Behind The Song

Inspired by an incident as a young man when I walked a lady home after closing time at a local bar.

Song Description

Walking someone home that you've just met - feeling on top of the world mixed with anxiety, uncertainty and the hope that things will work out well.

Lyrics

(Male or female lyrics)

Walking You All The Way Home

Streetlights butterflies
Sidewalks sliding by
Awkward silences hope
You make it seem so beautiful
Walking you all the way home

Future past
He (She) went from first to last
He (She) tore your pretty red heart in two
Must have been someone you'd never known
To do that to someone like you

And oh
In a little while
I won't want to go
But oh
If it's just this time
Can we take it slow

Up somewhere
At the top of a stair
You laugh and lift your eyes from the floor
Your lips are moving it's beautiful
Walking you right to your door



And oh
In a little while
I won't want to go
But oh
If it's just this time
Can we take it slow

After awhile
I watch my breath and I smile
Just a dreamer going nowhere alone
Following footsteps we made before
Walking you all the way home

Yes I'm following footsteps we made before
Walking you all the way home

Follow the footsteps we made before
Walking you all the way home

And you made it all so beautiful
Walking you all the way home
