My Mistake (Was To Love You)
|
Diana Ross
|
(P. Sawyer/G. Jones)
|
|
My mistake was to love you, girl
|
Love you, girl
|
My mistake was to give you all
|
Tell the world
|
|
First I had you
|
In the palm of my hand
|
But I let you slip through
|
Like rain to sand
|
At the beginning
|
When I didn't care
|
Like my own reflection
|
You were always there
|
|
My mistake was to love you, girl
|
Love you, girl
|
My mistake was to give you all
|
Tell the world
|
|
You were sweeter
|
Then my very own skin
|
But what did I do for you
|
Not a thing
|
In front of my friends
|
You broke me down
|
Since then darling
|
It's hard to track you down
|
|
My mistake was to love you, boy
|
Love you, boy
|
My mistake was to give my all
|
Tell the world
|
|
Many a smile
|
You put om ny face
|
But I paid dearly
|
With the tears I taste
|
|
My tenderness
|
Made you cold, not sweet
|
'Cause if a girl loves you
|
You only call her weak
|
|
My mistake was to love you, boy
|
Love you, boy
|
My mistake was to give my all
|
Tell the world
|
|
My mistake was to love you, girl
|
Love you, girl
|
My mistake was to give you all
|
Tell the world
|
