Greatest Mistake

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jamie Cullum] Open up your eyes, baby Let the truth and sun shine in One day, a-one day, a-one day you'll understand You'll grow up and you'll see There's a truth between friends and enemies [Verse 2: John Oates] I should have listened to my intuition of the way When your moves and your moods were saying They were sayin' no more, no more, no more, no more Can't stick around until you take me down And I'm alone and dealing With the confusion that I'm feeling [Chorus: John Oates & Jamie Cullum] I made the greatest mistake of my life When I let you get away, baby And I, I made the greatest mistake And still am, still am, still am [Verse 3: Jamie Cullum] I can see clearly That there's no love lost between us Misguided, lost child, I pray, I pray for you I hope that your lies can keep you warm [Verse 4: John Oates] Oh if I, I could rewind the time And keep those records playin', playin', playin' I'd say play on, play on, play on, play on About the love we never left behind Forget about the broken hearted We got to pick up where we started [Chorus: John Oates & Jamie Cullum] I made the greatest mistake of my life When I let you get away, baby And I, I made the greatest mistake And still am, still am, still am [Bridge: John Oates & Jamie Cullum] Wish I read the writing on the wall we made around us now, baby Mistakes can turn your world go round And build it up and tear it down, baby [Chorus: John Oates & Jamie Cullum] I made the greatest mistake of my life When I let you get away, baby I made the greatest mistake of my life Made the greatest mistake And it's still there, still there, still there [Outro: John Oates & Jamie Cullum] I made the greatest mistake of my life I never should have let you get away, baby I made the greatest mistake of my life I made the greatest mistake And you're the real thing, the real thing, still there I made the greatest mistake of my life When I let you go, baby
