Stepping Down
Words & Music by Nicki Rogers

Verse 1
Johnny always said to me that he would never wed.
His mother she had warned him that the rings were laced with lead
It sank her to the bottom of a murky ocean bed,
And who needs a lover, if loving leaves you dead.

Verse 2
I remember clearly, the day that pain arrived.
Blowing through my father’s house and leaving no one dry.
It rested on the shoulders of the bodies ill prepared.
But little drops of heaven started falling there.

Chorus
And I could, feel you stepping on down t o me.
Like sunshine in the morning, or summer in the breeze.
Yes I could, feel you stepping on down to me.
Little drops of heaven raining on that scene.

Verse 3
Jenny she was thirteen, but older in her head,
And it got here into trouble; they couldn’t get her out of bed.
Her brother finally told us that the note beside her read,
Who needs a lifetime, alone in all this mess?

Bridge
Raining over you, raining over me it’s the whisper in your conscience,
It’s the whisper in the breeze. X2

Verse 4
Well I think that you were thirty three, the day that you’d decided
Enough was really quite enough and that’s the day you died.
And resting on the shoulders of the body well prepared.
All the wrath of heaven started falling there..
