Jaya The Cat - Mistake lyrics

rate me

Well I met her downtown at a trance party<br />

I was crashing in the corner when she came up to me<br />

Lit her cigarette she sat down we talked for a while<br />

Said she was looking for someone to waste some time with<br />

Time was all we had so we spent it like spare change<br />

Emptied out our pockets at the bars by the fairway<br />

Had a pretty good run before the end<br />

Got out before it caught up man<br />

And as the black and whites faded into grey<br />

They say that you can never look back<br />

But I didn't wanna anyway<br />

<br />

You know that when I said I loved you well I musta been drunk<br />

Because you're no one that I'd ever love<br />

And when I exorcise my devils you're the first one gone<br />

No use in looking for an answer now to what went wrong<br />

And she said you know it's alright man<br />

Some things they just turn out that way<br />

<br />

Fifty cent beers in at the corner store<br />

In a one room apartment on the 13th floor<br />

Sleep all day until the night creeps in<br />

Thru the open window to call us again<br />

Responsibility got knifed in the back<br />

Dumped in an alley and left for dead<br />

But thru all the mistakes and the beautiful lies<br />

That we told ourselves while we were blacking out<br />

Somehow we made our way out<br />

But sometimes I miss it still<br />

They say you can't raise the dead<br />

So raise your glass instead<br />

That's just the way it is<br />

<br />

And she said you know it's alright man<br />

Some things they just turn out that way<br />

And in the end it's just a mistake<br />

That we had to make
