Looking back over my life
|
I can see where I have caused you strife
|
But I know, oh yes, I know
|
I'd never make that same mistake again
|
|
Looking back over my deeds
|
I can see signs a wise man heeds
|
And if I just had the chance
|
I'd never make that same mistake again
|
Once my cup was overflowing
|
But I gave nothing in return
|
Now I can't begin to tell you
|
What a lesson I have learned
|
|
Looking back over the slate
|
I can see love turn to hate
|
But I know, oh yes, I know
|
I'd never make that same mistake again
|
|
Once my cup was overflowing
|
But I gave nothing in return
|
Now I can't begin to tell you
|
Oh, what a lesson I have learned
|
|
Looking back over the slate
|
I can see love turn to hate
|
But I know, oh yes, I know
|
I'd never make that same mistake again
|
