STEPPIN' STONES
(Kat Graham / J. Francis Keus)
Lorrie Morgan (with Vince Gill & Travis Tritt) - 1996


On the rocky road to love, the goin' has been rough
I'd fall down, but somehow I always got back up
I climbed every mountain, crossed every valley too
Umm-hum-humm

(TRITT: I had a heart without a home,
But I kept on keepin' on
Lookin' for a love that would be true
GILL: They were all just steppin' stones to you, umm-umm)

Well I have walked on mines when I should have read the signs
Sayin' "Dead End, Don't Rush In", but I did every time
I started believin' that I was born to lose

(TRITT: Oh, but those days have gone 
'Cos my love with you has shown,
Given me another point of view
GILL: Oh, they're all just steppin' stones to you)

Steppin' Stones,
I stumbled over hearts till I found...solid ground
It's so clear,
Ain't it funny that it took a trail of tears...gettin' here
Now with no stone left unturned, I have finally learned
There's a reason things work out the way they do
Yeah, they were all just steppin' stones to you

(Instrumental Break)

I have no regrets for the paths I have walked
They all turn to sand now, but you are my rock
Steppin' Stones,
I stumbled over hearts till I found...solid ground
It's so clear,
But ain't it funny that it took a trail of tears...gettin' here
Now with no stone left unturned, I have finally learned
There's a reason things work out the way they do
They were all just steppin' stones to you

Steppin' stones
Steppin' stones
