My Greatest Mistake

My greatest mistake

was falling in love,

falling in love with you.

My greatest mistake

was dreaming of you

and thinking my dreams

would come true.

It was easy to see

you never loved me,

though I hoped and

I prayed

someday, it could be.

My greatest mistake,

my greatest heartache

was falling in love

with you.

Darlin',

you know my greatest mistake

was falling in love.

And I mean,

falling in love

with a beautiful gal like you.

You know,

I made another mistake.

Know what that was?

Just dreamin' of you

and being foolish enough to think

that all of my dream

was bound to come true.

You know, it should have been easy for me to see

that honey,,

you never loved me.

'Course, I hoped and I prayed

that maybe someday

it could be.

My greatest mistake,

my greatest heartache

was falling in love

with you.
