In Her Master's Steps



Walk my pretty, right here beside me

Don't step ahead of mine - for I freeze

I cannot walk in the path that you lead

For my steps go nowhere at all, you see



So you must stay to either one side or the other

And that way ... we both walk free and uncovered

Even if you chose to walk in my steps behind ...

Sooner or later, our steps would still come to bind



So please, Baby ... have a heart and walk beside

And neither one of us will then have steps denied

For the dual forward motion of two bodies in league

Contributes so much to souls being totally at peace



- Tristram
