about

Cookie core ice cream: secured. La La Land: rented. Best friends: on the way with face masks. “Baby Steps” by Melina KB is the theatrical bop you want on repeat whilst deleting his contact and healing from heartbreak! Penned by a stay-up-past-your-bedtime YA Romance reader who’s relationships have plummeted just as dramatically as she’s fallen in love, KB captures just how exciting beginning to move on from a bad breakup can be. So grab your makeup wipes, start stitching up that heart on your sleeve, and press play!

lyrics

I flirted with somebody new last night
He drove from Colorado and he teased me for not knowing where that is
I’m geographically his

He brushed up on my arm and we touched, that’s it
But my heart got all fluttery and now I’m wondering if so did his?
What if
We theoretically kissed?

And I know it’s not much, but it’s more than I’ve
Been able to do in six months
My heart is torn from an old love
Let’s stitch it up so

I won’t crawl back to my ex, no
I’ve been crying less and less
So break a bottle, make a mess
I’ve been taking baby steps

I flirted with somebody, yeah that’s right
And I could tell my ex was jealous but I didn’t let it wreck my night
I tell my girls I’ll be alright

And I know it’s silly
But those sea splashed eyes
Are all I’ve thought about since three
These butterflies won’t leave me be
Am I ready?
I won’t crawl back to my ex, no
I’ve been crying less and less
So break a bottle, make a mess
I’ve been taking baby steps

Healing is a process
I promise to be patient
I’m working through the sorrow
Tomorrow keeps me faithful
Healing is a process
I promise to be patient
I’m working through the sorrow
Tomorrow keeps me faithful

I won’t crawl back to my ex, no
I’ve been crying less and less
So break a bottle, make a mess
I’ve been taking baby steps
