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 eyes And she changed the night
I stepped across the line I should have watched that first step It was a mighty big step When I started steppin´ out of line Though she´s still lovin´ 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 every day And my conscience couldn´t live with all that pain She´s growing colder Since the day I told her And the love we had will never be the same I should have watched that first step It was a mighty big step When I started steppin´ out of line Though she´s still lovin´ 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
