My friend Steve he wears his heart on his sleeve   
All the girls seem to leave him lonely   
Well, I'm a nice guy with a shoulder to cry on   
With one bit of advice only   
You gotta inch your way, working every day   
Showing her all your love   
Lighten her load but keep it on the road and you'll grow it   
So don't you blow it   
  
Take another baby step, up the mountain of love   
It's a long, long ways and so high up above   
Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb   
That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time   
  
Icarus standing on the shore with his dad, saying that he wants to fly   
Dad says son I can hook up the wings if you promise not to go too high   
But he forgot what he said and he lost his head   
He headed straight for the sun   
That sealed his fate, he was a little too late for returning   
Now he's burning   
  
Take another baby step, up the mountain of love   
It's a long, long ways and so high up above   
Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb   
That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time  
  
Keep a walking. Little bitty steps are gonna work it brother   
Keep a walking right on   
Putting one foot in front of the other, take it  
  
Take another baby step, up the mountain of love   
It's a long, long ways and so high up above   
Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb   
That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time
