lyrics & music by Jeff Knight / Country Pop Male Demo
I am just a songwriter/musician/singer/producer who writes a few songs every now and then. I have since retired from road work and mostly do studio recordings and I have my own home demo studio which you hear music created in it from time to time. I will post some demos of my own and maybe some demos of co-writes or co-producing. It's just what I feel like posting at the time. Thanks for stopping by! ;-)

Title: Every step of the way
lyrics and music by Jeff Knight, BMI © 2007
v1
We were just kids leaving high school
skippin class was against the rules
But we did anyhow, couldn’t turn back now.
those thunder clouds started to roar
she took my hand as it began to pour
so we laid down, right there on the ground
lift
I couldn’t believe it was going like this
then our lips met in our first kiss … and
chorus
She was with me, every step of the way
hand in hand and arm in arm,
through the rain I saw a shining star
the path we made, had begun
once were two, now are one
and she was with me every step of the way
v2
It was graduation day in eighty eight
I popped the question on our friday night date
and she began to cry, wiping tears from her eyes
She hugged me tightly and said “Yes
you think I’d look beautiful in a wedding dress?”
I wouldn’t lie, “You’d make a lovely bride”
lift
I’ll never forget the way she smiled
as we walked down that ole church aisle
chorus
She was with me, every step of the way
hand in hand and arm in arm,
through the tears I saw a shining star
the path we made, had begun
once were two, now are one
and she was with me every step of the way
bridge:
That was 20 years ago this year
for the last 5 she’s not been here
wish she could see our daughter today
walking into kindergarten class this way
then I heard a voice above me say
chorus
I was with you, every step of the way
hand in hand and arm in arm
through your tears I saw our shining star
the path we’d made, had begun
once were two, became the little one
I was with you, I was with you
I was with you, every step of the way
