George Strait — I Should Have Watched That First Step

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] I should have 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] I should have 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
