Open up your eyes baby
Let the truth and sun shine in
One day, one day, one day youll understand
Youll grow up and youll see
Theres a truth between friends and enemiesI 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
Cant stick around until' you take me down
And Im alone and dealin' with the confusion that Im 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 amI can see clearly
That theres no love lost between us
Misguided, lost child I pray, I pray for you
I hope that your lies can keep you warmOh 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 amWish 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 babyI 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 its still there, still there, still thereI 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 youre the real thing, the real thing still amI made the greatest mistake of my life
When I let you get away baby
