Nashville, 1992-93: Another of Kenton's Country/Western flavored songs. The title line of the song is a great one.

The Ladder of My Success ©Kenton Kovich

I much more than miss you
I long for the touch of your hand
If this is what I must go through
To prove to the stars I'm a man
Love keeps us together
Life keeps us apart
So I keep myself busy
Distracting my heart

Girl, who knows the reason
The reason we race and we run on
Through these precious seasons
Pursuing some day in the Sun
To save for tomorrow
At the expense of today
The high cost of living
Is the love that we pay

The pursuit of happiness
Is bringing me down
I'd rather be standing
And have you around
Than keep running and chasing
This unreachable star
The ladder of my success
Leans on your heart

I much more than love you
Much more than these few words can say
And it's your happiness
That makes up the best of my days
And I am stronger
For the love that you gave
But I can't wait much longer
To stop living in vain

The pursuit of happiness
Is bringing me down
I'd rather be standing
And have you around
Than keep running and chasing
That unreachable star
The ladder of my success
Leans on your heart
The ladder of my success
Leans on your heart
