I once had a love,
|
A true and lasting love,
|
But the fool in me,
|
Came out one night.
|
And with her loving eyes,
|
She saw right through my lies.
|
And she changed the night
|
I stepped across the line.
|
|
I should've watched that first step.
|
It was a mighty big step.
|
When I started stepping out of line.
|
Though she's still loving me,
|
It's not the way it used to be.
|
That first step did something to her mind.
|
|
I watched her slip away.
|
A little more everyday.
|
For my conscience
|
Couldn't live with all that shame.
|
Now she's growing colder
|
Since the day i told her.
|
And the love we had
|
Will never be the same.
|
|
I should've watched that first step.
|
It was a mighty big step.
|
When I started stepping out of line.
|
Though she's still loving me,
|
It's not the way it used to be.
|
That first step did something to her mind.
|
|
That first step did something to her mind.
