I remember way back, way back when I said I never wanna see your face again 'Cause you were loving, yes you're 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 used to call me up from time to time And it would be so hard for me not to cross the line The words of love lay 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
