My Mistake (was To Love You) Lyrics - Diana Ross

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 

Photos 

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
