My Mistake

I can't tell you what happened that day, darlin' . No, not when
you're awake. So I'll stay up late at night watching you
sleeping. No-I-can't tell you what happened that day. You might
run away, darlin' so I'll stay up late at night-watching you
sleeping. When you're dreaming... I'll whisper my mistake.
I've been living my life. Wishing this wrong away. I know what
you're thinking: I must have been drinking to act this way. Ok. I
needed some attention. Something I just couldn't get from you.
You were so far away, and I wanted to play. I was lonely. Waiting
for you.
Baby, I've been bad.. but right now I'm so good. I don't want to
tell you this... but I think I should.
I don't want you to walk away. I don't want you to run. No longer
lying. I'm
done denying. Please forgive me so I can let it go. I know
running away will never make me free. I regret it-can't forget
it-baby, believe me. It's a Monday morning, five a.m. and you're
smiling. I think you might understand.
Baby, I've been bad.. but right now I'm so good. I don't want to
lose you-and I think I could.
I can't tell you what happened that day, darlin'. No, not when
you're awake. So I'll stay up late at night, watching you
sleeping. No-I-can't tell you what happened that day, you might
run away, darlin'. So I'll stay up late at night watching you
sleeping. When you're dreaming... I'll whisper my mistake.
