One Mistake Lyrics

Yesterday seemed to go so fast,

Having so much fun, till we were the last

But why then did I say

That you were obliged to stay

Now today, having just begun

To collect my thoughts, I know I'm the one

Who made that one mistake

Caused a lonely night awake

So recently, I could see my life no other way

Than with you there beside me

Now suddenly, I watch that happy picture slip away

And then I realise

One mistake, I saw the look

One mistake, was all it took

I badly played the part

My lines they broke your heart

You will say that you can't forgive

Nor will try again, have your life to live

Wish I could turn back time

When you were safely mine

So recently, I could see my life no other way

Than with you there beside me

Now suddenly, I watch that happy picture slip away

And then I realise

One mistake, I saw the look

One mistake, re-wrote the book

One mistake, was all it took
