Greatest Mistake

Open up your eyes baby

Let the truth and sun shine in

One day, one day, one day you'll understand

You'll grow up and you'll see

There's a truth between friends and enemies

And I should have listened to my intuition of the way

When your moves and your moods were saying

They were sayin' no more, no more, no more, no more

Can't stick around until you take me down

And I'm alone and dealing

With the confusion that I'm feeling

I made the greatest mistake of my life

When I let you get away baby

And I, I made the greatest mistake

And still am, still am, still am

I can see clearly

That there's no love lost between us

Misguided, lost child I pray, I pray for you

I hope that your lies can keep you warm

Oh if I, I could rewind the time

And keep those records playin', playin', playin'

I say play on, play on, play on, play on

About the love we never left behind

Forget about the broken hearted

We got to pick up where we started

I made the greatest mistake of my life

When I let you get away baby

And I, I made the greatest mistake

And still am, still am, still am

Wish I read the writing on the wall we made around us now baby

Mistakes can turn your world go round and build it up and tear it down baby

I made the greatest mistake of my life

When I let you get away baby

I made the greatest mistake of my life

Make the greatest mistake

And it's still there, still there, still there

I made the greatest mistake of my life

I never should have let you get away baby

I made the greatest mistake of my life

Make the greatest mistake

And you're the real thing, the real thing

Still am

I made the greatest mistake of my life

When I let you get away baby
