My Mistakes

If you count all my mistakes

I would have to walk away

I just could not take another yesterday

I've not the strength to fade away

Now if I admit defeat

Tell me what then will that mean

Will I cease to be or will I be redeemed

Or will it be the end of me

And you ought to know by now

To get out from under that cloud

That took all my power

And it's the only thing that counts

Well I smile as I stand here today

With all the mistakes I've made

Now in my darkest night

They're the brightest stars in the sky

If you count all my mistakes

I would have to walk away

I just could not take another yesterday

I've not the strength to fade away

Fade away

And you ought to know by now

To get out from under that cloud

That took all my power

And it's the only thing that counts

Well I smile as I stand here today

With all the mistakes I've made

Now in my darkest night

They're the brightest stars in the sky

If you count all my mistakes

I would have to walk away

I just could not take another yesterday

I've not the strength to fade away
