My Mistake Lyrics

I looked from the corner of my eye, revealed an image of you near my side

The picture wasn't quite clear, your features were distorted

Do I have a problem with my eyesight, or do I have a problem with you?

I turned to face your face, I only faced myself

I asked myself where you were and "I don't know" was my reply

I asked myself where you were

So I turned and walked away from me in search of you in search of me

I tried to change and God how I wanted you to do the same

But I wouldn't have wished upon anyone this especially, not myself

Now who will cling, who will cling to your ankles

I turned to face your face, I only faced myself

I asked myself where you were and "I don't know" was my reply

I asked myself where you were

In search of someone afraid to face with very little to say

I thought I saw you, just the other day

I thought I saw you, just the other day

I said "I miss you"

I said "I miss you… oops, sorry miss, my mistake!"

I turned to face your face, I only faced myself

I asked myself where you were and "I don't know" was my reply

I asked myself where you were

You used to see it. I saw it coming

You used to feel it and I felt you slipping

You lost your pride you were ashamed

You lost your shame now I searched in vain

I asked myself where you were and "I don't know" was my reply

I asked myself where you were
