Lana Langusto - Mistake

The dawn is painting on my windowpane Another morning, the same old pain, the same old rain I trace the cracks in the walls I've built so high Each one a lesson I seem to have failed to learn A wasted youth and chances thrown away like dust A tangled web of should haves and fading trust I've stumbled, fallen into the dark unknown Thinking that I was destined to walk alone forever But then you came along, a beautiful mistake For heaven's sake, I never planned a detour My compass was lost, my map was torn and tattered And in the chaos, my heart decided that it was still in place You were a wrong turn on a winding road that I should not have taken My biggest mistake, the biggest risk I was willing to take And though they whisper stupid, and though I know it's true My life full of mistakes, dear, has led me straight to you I pushed away the good, accepted the bitter resentment I believed the lies that I always loved to sing about sadness I built a defense, strong and based on fragile pride Afraid to let another person look inside me I chased shadows, ran away from any glimmer of light I got lost in the labyrinth of my own darkest night Every wrong decision felt like another nail driven deep into my heart Secrets I've kept, promises I've failed to keep But then you came along, a beautiful mistake For heaven's sake, I never planned a detour My compass was lost, my map was torn and tattered And in the chaos, my heart decided that it was still in place You were a wrong turn on a winding road that I should not have taken My biggest mistake, the biggest risk I was willing to take And though they whisper stupid, and though I know it's true My life full of mistakes, dear, has led me straight to you Maybe I was broken, maybe I was lost at sea Looking for an anchor, something that meant something to me And then you found me in the wreckage and the strife A wild, unexpected turn of fate I never wanted to fall, I never wanted to worry But something in your eyes drove away all the despair But then you came along, a beautiful mistake For heaven's sake, I never planned a detour My compass was lost, my map was torn and tattered And in the chaos, my heart decided that it was still in place You were a wrong turn on a winding road that I should not have taken My biggest mistake, the biggest risk I was willing to take And though they whisper stupid, and though I know it's true My life full of mistakes, dear, has led me straight to you Yeah, my life of errors, a path I can't undo But every single wrong turn, yeah, it led me straight to you My beautiful mistake, my only love true Only love true
