I Walk A Little Faster

(Cy Coleman/Carolyn Leigh)



Pretending that we'll meet

Each time I turn a corner

I walk a little faster



Pretending life is sweet

Cause love is around the corner

I walk a little faster



Can't begin to see my future shine as yet

No sign as yet

You're mine as yet



Rushing toward a face

I can't divine as yet

Keep bumping into walls

And taking lots of falls



But even though I meet

At each and every corner

With nothing but disaster



I set my chin a little higher

Hope a little longer

Build a little stronger castle in the air

And thinking you'll be there

I walk a little faster



Can't begin to see my future shine as yet

No sign as yet

You're mine as yet



Rushing toward a face

I can't divine as yet

Keep bumping into walls

And taking lots of falls



But even though I meet

At each and every corner

With nothing but disaster



I set my chin a little higher

Hope a little longer

Build a little stronger castle in the air

And thinking you'll be there

I walk a little faster
