My Mistake

Look what I have done

I've caused a lot of pain

'Cause I never really knew

What love could put someone through

I just wanted excitement

Wanted what I want but

Didn't fulfil my needs

And now that I see the picture

Please pardon me

We all have our wants

I know everyone's got their needs

Oh but somehow what I wanted

Overruled my needs I was living

In a fantasy

All I needed was to see

True love needs romance

And it took me so long to learn

Then one day I would really see

How painful it'd really be

When you lose your love

I should've realized

That you can't disguise

Love when it's real

I should've known the reality

When I set her free

She said you didn't love me

I knew that it was my mistake

There's a million times

I felt that I'd found love

But each time it turned out to be

None of the things I'd ever dreamed of

One day I met her

I hoped that she'd be different

From the rest

I would finally live my adventure

Had she only agreed

Oh but I should've realized

That you can't disguise

Love when it's real

I should've known

True love wouldn't be

When she looked at me

And said she didn't love me

I knew that it was my mistake
