Stepping Stone
Duffy Lyrics
I remember way back way back when
I said I never wanna see your face again
Cause you were loving yes you were 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 whats going on
Cause the feelings in me oh yes in me are burning strong
But I will never be your stepping stone
I will never be your stepping stone
I'm standing upright on my own
You used 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 get 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
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
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

I remember, way back, way back when
I said I never wanna see your face again
Cause you were loving, yes you 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 a friend
But I think you know, oh yes you know what's going on
Cause the feelings of me, oh yes of 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 it would only make it worse
And now you have the nerve to play along
Just like the maestro beats in his song
You get your kicks, you get your kicks from playing me
And the less you give, the more I want so foolishly

Stepping stone
I remember way back way back when
I said I never wanna see your face again
'Cause you were loving yes
Your 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 still call me up from time to time
And it would be so hard for me
Not to cross the line
The words of love lie on my clips
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 Knicks, 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 stoneTake it all
Or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
I'm standing upright
On my own

@laminage And I respect the singers from across the Pond because they give credit to the artist from over here who inspired them!❤
laminage
@Phillip Siddiq You're so right on about that. Europe has always had some amazing Blue Eyed Soul Singers. Her, Adele, Amy Winehouse, Jessi J., Natasha Bedingfield, Ruthanne and Nadine Coyle (Formerly Of Girls Aloud). I could see Nadine doing a song similar to this one. It has such a Burt Bacharach/Hal David Vibe to it.
