Stepping Stone

I remember way back way back when
I said I never wanna see your face again
'Cause you were loving yes
Your loving somebody else
And I knew, oh yes I knew
I couldn't control myself
And now they bring you back
Into my life again
And so I put on a face
Just like your friends
But I think you know, oh yes
You know what's going on
'Cause the feelings in me
Oh, yes in me
Are burning strong
But I will never be your stepping stone
Take it all
Or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
I'm standing upright
On my own
You still call me up from time to time
And it would be so hard for me
Not to cross the line
The words of love lie on my lips
Just like a curse
And I knew, oh yes I knew
They'd only make it worse
And now you have the nerve
To play along
Just like the maestro beats in your song
You got your kicks, you get your kicks
From playing me
And the less you give
The more I want so foolishly
But I will never be your stepping stone
Take it all
Or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
I'm standing upright
On my own
No, I will never be your stepping stone
Take it all
Or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
I'm standing upright
On my own
Never be your stepping stone
Take it all
Or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
I'm standing upright
On my own
