My Favorite Mistake

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 at 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 is

You're my favorite mistake



Well, your friends are sorry for me

They watch you pretend to adore me

But i'm no fool to this game



Now here comes your secret lover

She'd be unlike any other

Until your guilt goes up in flames



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 is

You're my favorite mistake

You're my favorite mistake



Well maybe nothin' 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



Did you know, could you tell

You were the only one

That i ever loved

Now 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
