Aida - A Step Too Far

A Step Too Far from the Broadway musical Aida, with music and lyrics by Tim Rice and Elton John. I do not own anything. All rights belong to Tim Rice, Elton John, and Universal Distribution.
Amneris:
It's so strange he doesn't show me
more affection than he needs
Almost formal too respectful
never takes romantic leads
There are times when I imagine
I'm not always on his mind
He's not thinking what I'm thinking
Always half a step behind
Always half a step behind
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Radames:
I'm in every kind of trouble
Can't you tell, just look at me
Half ecstatic,half dejected
All in all I'm all at sea
Easy terms I thought I wanted
Fill me now with chilling dread
You could never know the chaos
Of a life turned on it's head
Of a life turned on it's head
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Radames and Amneris:
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Aida:
I am certain that I love him
But a love can be misplaced
Have I compromissed my people
In my passion and my haste?
I could be his life companion
Anywhere but where we are
Am I leader? Am I traitor?
Did I take a step too far?
Aida:
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Aida & Radames:
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Aida, Radames & Amneris:
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Did I take a step too far!

Very powerful song! Every song in this musical is great!

[@michaelglickman1300]

They really should have put this song out as a single, it really has the potential to make the Billboard Hot 100.

[@mahsheedmassarat5197]

I sang the title role when I was 16! First major lead, it made me study voice! 9 years later now as an adult with an MM in Voice, I would do it all again! Love this show! ❤️

[@naomib5322]

no one: these comments: is that the guy from rent these comments: sounds like adam pascal these comments: sounds like roger from rent

Thanks Allah, he was and still is and will remain in heavens with us.

[@juliet5413]

ugh this song makes me so sad!

[@JamesSnarkle1234]

this is so much like "All of My Love" by Led Zeppelin

[@ChopSmashnikov]

Wow, you're right! I was wondering what about it sounded familiar.

[@deboraewing9944]

OMG you are so right. Two of my favorite love songs. Another is more obscure: You Are by Ali Azmat. I don't think it's a similar feel, but maybe I'm wrong because I didn't catch the similarity here.

[@TheInfamousSophia]

Is the male's voice the actor who played Roger in the movie Rent? (sorry I don't know character names from this show)

[@giovannaamaral2755]

He is Adam Pascal😉

[@codygabe67]

Makes my soul bleed

[@madelynsummers]

Adam Pascal is in this show as radames.

[@highnote32]

The man singing sounds like Adam Pascal.

[@blair2018]

[@damo87araimo]

Sounds like the guy from Rent to me.

[@brianborchardt7198]

@@damo87araimo Same guy.

[@marinakoszmegac2048]

Yes, a step too far was made. And I am certain about my choice. I was always clear about that. So, you can not manipulate me into doing something that is not me.

[@sasuke4414]

um... yes...

[@rachelfinney7609]

It is. :)

[@iannoelc2123]

illcoverit Have you found anyone yet for this song?

[@Iplayforhim16]

Like

[@DebyCedars]

I'm so confused

[@benv7933]

At this point in the show, the main characters are all uncertain with where they are at and/or their decisions.

[@lantebalscofan4ever]

Yes, it is.. Radames...

[@anthonynapier2887]

I pulled a rusty fish hook out of the heel of my foot because I was afraid of my mom when I was 4, just saying
