| [verse] | |
| Staring at the sunset, colors paint the sky | |
| Thoughts of you keep swirling, can't deny | |
| I know I let you down, I made mistakes | |
| But I'm here to mend the heart I didn't break | |
| [chorus] | |
| Every road you take, I'll be one step behind | |
| Every dream you chase, I'm reaching for the light | |
| You can't fight this feeling now | |
| I won't back down | |
| You know you can't deny it now | |
| I won't back down | |
| [verse] | |
| They might say I'm foolish, chasing after you | |
| But they don't feel this love the way we do | |
| My heart beats only for you, can't you see? | |
| I won't let you slip away from me | |
| [chorus] | |
| Every road you take, I'll be one step behind | |
| Every dream you chase, I'm reaching for the light | |
| You can't fight this feeling now | |
| I won't back down | |
| You know you can't deny it now | |
| I won't back down | |
| [bridge] | |
| No, I won't back down, won't turn around | |
| Until you're back where you belong | |
| I'll cross the oceans wide, stand by your side | |
| Together we are strong | |
| [outro] | |
| Every road you take, I'll be one step behind | |
| Every dream you chase, love's the tie that binds | |
| You can't fight this feeling now | |
| I won't back down |
