"Ballroom Steps" is an emotional indie-pop ballad that weaves together themes of longing, distance, and cyclical connection. With poignant lyrics and a melancholic melody, the song paints a cinematic picture of two souls constantly drawn together yet never quite aligned. The verses explore moments of personal vulnerability—kneeling in bars, praying in pews—while the chorus contrasts time and space, symbolized by a ballroom under the stars. The track’s soft instrumentation builds gradually, underscoring the emotional weight without overwhelming the storytelling. The recurring phrase “back where we started” reinforces the bittersweet nature of relationships that orbit but never quite collide. "Ballroom Steps" captures the ache of near-misses and the beauty of holding on.
