I've been where you are
that first step is by far the hardest
but you'll get no rest until you take it.
and when you do
everything opens up for you
the whole world seems brand new
when you take that first step.

The comfort zone
is not covered by your oyster card
but you can stay there
not care and not dare
to make a move
and
that's where you'll remain,

one step,
that's all
the ball's in your court.
