One Thing Leads To Another

(album: It Was Always So Easy (To Find An Unhappy Woman) - 1975)

I guess if I'd admit it we'd all know who was wrong
But one thing leads to another when there isn't much at home
Drink and conversation helps to ease the mind
But one thing leads to another every time

One thing leads to another as the door behind you locks
And before you really notice you've gone too far to stop
What started out so sweetly has grown into a crime
One thing leads to another every time

I quickly signed the papers then gave the pen to you
The old judge mumbled softly and then it was all through
I can't believe it's come this far just two names on the line
But one thing leads to another every time

One thing leads to another as the door behind you locks
And before you really notice you've gone too far to stop
What started out so sweetly has grown into a crime
One thing leads to another every time

And one thing leads to another every time...
