Dm
i remember way, way back when
        C                       Gm
i said i never wanna see your face again
                C                        Gm    
cause you were loving, yes you were someone else
       C                                 Gm
and i knew, yes i knew i couldn't control myself
Dm
and now they bring you back into my life again
        C                       Gm
and so i put on face just like your friends
        C                                   Gm
but i think you know, oh yes you know whats going on  
           C                               Gm
cause the feelings in me, oh yes in me are burning strong.

(chorus.)
          Dm              C       Gm
but i will never be your stepping stone,
        Dm       C       Gm
take it all or leave me alone,
       Dm              C       Gm
i will never be your stepping stone,
    Dm        C      Gm
i m standing upright on my own.

verse 2.
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 lye 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 mistro 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.

chorus.
but i will never be your stepping stone,
take it all or leave me alone,
i will never be your stepping stone,
im standing upright on my own.
