Lyrics
I woke up and called this morning
The tone of your voice was a warning
That you don't care for me anymore
I made up the bed we sleep in
I looked to the clock when you creep in
It's 6 a.m. and I'm alone
Did you know when you go
It's the perfect ending
To the bad day, I was just beginning?
When you go all I know's
You're my favorite mistake, oh
Now your friends are sorry for me
They watch you pretend to adore me
Oh, but I'm not a fool to this game
And here comes your secret lover
Shе'll be unlike any other
Until your guilt goеs up in flames, yeah-yeah
Did you know when you go
It's the perfect ending
To the bad day, I've gotten used to spending?
When you go all I know's
You're my favorite mistake
You're my favorite mistake
Maybe nothing lasts forever
Even when you stay together
I don't need forever after
It's your laughter won't let me go
So I'm holding on this way
Holding on
Did you know, could you tell
You were the only one that I ever loved?
And everything's so wrong
Did you see me walking by?
Did it ever make you cry?
You're my favorite mistake
You're my favorite mistake
You're my favorite mistake, oh
Oh yes, you are
