My Mistake

I'm in a dream I'm flying over hills,

I see it shining in the hay.

There's something golden in my hands,

And then I go and let it slip away.

With eyes that are broken, my feelings are spoken.

It's time for the waters to break.

I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there.

I won't let you be my mistake.

The days go by like chapters from a book,

I'm skipping pages to the end.

There's a story that I'll never know,

The one about the man who makes amends.

With eyes that are open, my feelings are spoken.

It's time for the waters to break.

I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there.

I won't let you be my mistake.

The moment's uncovered, I must seize the day.

This goal that I hold high - won't let it be lost for all time.

With eyes that are open, my feelings are spoken.

It's time for the waters to break.

I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there.

I won't let you be my mistake.

With eyes that are broken, my feelings are spoken.

It's time for the waters to break.

I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there.

I won't let you be my mistake.

My mistake baby…
