The Same Mistake Again

Steve Wariner · Drive [Arista] [1993]

(Carl Jackson - Steve Wariner)



Now that it's all over

Now that you broke my heart

It's plain to see that you and me

Were wrong right from the start.



Hindsight's 20-20

And love was blind back then

Anyway with half a chance

I'd make the same mistake, again.



On the way to your new love

I was just your stepping stone

Guess I should have sensed it

Somehow I should have known.



But knowing what I know now

Even knowing where it ends

God knows with half a chance

I'd make the same mistake again.



--- Instrumental ---



Though you're gone forever

Life will never be the same

Even though I go to pieces

Every time I hear your name.



I still say the wrong choice

Was the right one way back then

I swear with half a chance

I'd make the same mistake again.



On the way to your new love

I was just your stepping stone

Guess I should have sensed it

Somehow I should have known.



But knowing what I know now

Even knowing where it ends

God knows with half a chance

I'd make the same mistake again...
