The first step of love
Is when you make it seem real
Oh, don't you fake it, anymore
I really can't take it, that's for sure

You're not to blame
You're not to blame
You're not to blame
It's a cryin' shame

The second step of love
Is when you take me you feel
The first step of love
Is when you make it seem real
The first step of love
Is when you make it seem real

Time after time, I've been telling you why
Time after time, I've been wanting to try

The first step of love
The first step of love
The first step of love

The last step of love
Is when you take me for a fool
Oh, didn't you take me for a fool
How could you treat me so cruel

The first step of love
Is when you make it seem real

Time after time, I've been telling you why
Time after time, I've been wanting to try

The first step of love
The first step of love
The first step of love
