[Intro]
Must've been my mistake
Swore I heard you say till your dyin' day
You would love me always
[Verse 1]
Imagination's actin' up again
You ripped out pages, then you spoiled the end
Fallin' into love, that ain't no excuse
Why'd it take a stranger to break the news?
I get no prize for bein' innocent
[PreChorus]
I'm wakin' up to Cruel Intentions
Feel like I'm comin' off a high
I've got the clearest recollection
Promises etched into my mind
[Chorus]
Must've been my mistake
Swore I heard you say you'd be mine always
Oh, but it must've been my mistake
Swore I heard you say till your dyin' day
You would love me always
[Verse 2]
Heard my name like music from your mouth
But just like smoke, you breathed me in and out
How long did you play with the fantasy?
I wonder 'bout the way you'll remember me
The night our home became just a house
[PreChorus]
I'm wakin' up to Cruel Intentions
Feel like I'm comin' off a high
I've got the clearest recollection
Promises etched into my mind
[Chorus]
Must've been my mistake
Swore I heard you say you'd be mine always
Oh, but it must've been my mistake
Swore I heard you say till your dyin' day
You would love me always
[PostChorus]
Oh
Always, oh
[Bridge]
So why don't you come say what you wanna say?
You hold her pretty close, thought you needed space
But I won't make a scene, just call me crazy, baby
[Chorus]
But it must've been my mistake
Swore I heard you say you'd be mine always
Oh, must've been my mistake
Swore I heard you say till your dyin' day
You would love me always
[PostChorus]
Always
