Open up your eyes, baby

Let the truth and sun shine in, hmm

One day, one day, one day you′ll understandYou'll grow up and you′ll see

There's a truth between friends and enemies

I should have listened to my intuition of the way

When your moves and your moods were sayin'

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 dealin' with the confusion that I′m feelin'

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 around

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 one thing, still there

I made the greatest mistake of my life

When I let you get away baby...
