My Favorite Mistake   





I woke up and called this morning 

The tone of your voice was a warning 

That you don't care for me anymore 

 

I made up the bed we sleep in 

I looked at the clock when you creep in 

It's 6 a.m. and I'm alone 

 

 [Chorus]  

Did you know when you go 

It's the perfect ending 

To the bad day I was just beginning 

When you go all I know is 

You're my favorite mistake 

 

Your friends are sorry for me 

They watch you pretend to adore me 

But I'm no fool to this game 

 

Now here comes your secret lover 

She'd be unlike any other 

Until your guilt goes up in flames 

 

 [Chorus]  

 

You're my favorite mistake 

 

Well maybe nothin' lasts forever 

Even when you stay together 

I don't need forever after 

It's your laughter won't let me go 

So I'm holding on this way 

 

Did you know, could you tell 

You were the only one  

That I ever loved 

Now everything's so wrong 

 

Did you see me walking by? 

Did it ever make you cry? 

 

You're my favorite mistake 

You're my favorite mistake 

You're my favorite mistake
