Some will fall at the start
Some will fall at the end
Some won't even take,
the first step..
I want to see it
through do what I have to do
Try and go as far as
I can go
And I don't want to leave you behind
But I've just got to keep moving on
We're so close we're almost there
But I'm not ready to quit..
Not Just yet.
You tell me that I'm wrong
You say that path's too long
You can say what you want
I won't listen.
Too late to back out now
I'll try and show you how
I believe that it can
All work out
And I don't want to leave you behind
But I've just got to keep moving on
We're so close we're almost there
But I'm not ready to quit – Not Just yet.
Unstoppable waves drowning new ideas
Creative people held back by fears
Of what others might think or they might say
Are you really gonna live your life that way..
When everyone's gone, I'll still be here
Singing this song singing loud and clear
Without some faith you can't begin
I'm knocking at the door won't you let me in.
And I don't want to leave you behind
But I've just got to keep moving on
We're so close we're almost there
But I'm not ready to quit, -Not Just yet
And I don't want to leave you behind
But I've just got to keep moving on
We're so close we're almost there
But I'm not ready to quit… Not Just yet
Some will fall at the end
Some won't even take,
the first step..
I want to see it
through do what I have to do
Try and go as far as
I can go
And I don't want to leave you behind
But I've just got to keep moving on
We're so close we're almost there
But I'm not ready to quit..
Not Just yet.
You tell me that I'm wrong
You say that path's too long
You can say what you want
I won't listen.
Too late to back out now
I'll try and show you how
I believe that it can
All work out
And I don't want to leave you behind
But I've just got to keep moving on
We're so close we're almost there
But I'm not ready to quit – Not Just yet.
Unstoppable waves drowning new ideas
Creative people held back by fears
Of what others might think or they might say
Are you really gonna live your life that way..
When everyone's gone, I'll still be here
Singing this song singing loud and clear
Without some faith you can't begin
I'm knocking at the door won't you let me in.
And I don't want to leave you behind
But I've just got to keep moving on
We're so close we're almost there
But I'm not ready to quit, -Not Just yet
And I don't want to leave you behind
But I've just got to keep moving on
We're so close we're almost there
But I'm not ready to quit… Not Just yet

Lyrics & Music by Oliver Southgate
Album: Step Back
"This is a song about not giving up. It is always easier to quit than persevere. If you have stuck at something and really achieved something then no one can take that away from you.
Thanks to my brother Alex Southgate for some nice hammond organ sounds on this song."
