I Should Have Watched the First Step

George Strait

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. Repeat chorus Tag: That first step did something to her mind.
