I Should Have Watched That First Step — текст песни (George Strait)

(Wayne Kemp)

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.
