I remember way back, way back when I said I'd never want to see your face again
Cause you were loving, yes, you were loving somebody else
And I knew, oh yes, I knew I could control myself
And now they bring you back into my life again
And so I put on a face just like your friend's
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 up right on my own
You used to call me up from time to time
And it would be so awful for me not to cross the line
The words of love lay on our lips just like a curse
And I knew, oh yes, I knew that I would make it
And now you have the nerve to play along
Just like the maestro beats in your song
You got your kicks, you got your kicks from flaring
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 up right on my own
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh



I will never be a stepping stone. Take it all or leave me alone. I will never be a stepping stone. I'm standing upright on my own.
I will never be a stepping stone. Take it all or leave me alone. I will never be a stepping stone. I'm standing upright on my own.
I will never be a stepping stone.
