My Mistake Lyrics - Split Enz

I went out to see if I could fall in love again 

That was my mistake, that was my mistake 

I went out to see if I could raise a laugh again 

That was my mistake, that was my mistake 

When all I needed was a friend 

To make me stop and think again 

Pull me up and pull me through 

Tally ho, your health my dear 

I went out to see if I could live for a couple of days 

That was my mistake, that was my mistake 

One by one I counted all those happiest of days 

Yeah, that was my mistake, why, that was my mistake? 

What's gone is gone, sweet memories 

Don't let them get the best of me 

No more lost in history 

No more lost for love 

When all I needed was a friend 

To make me stop and think again 

The call to arms is loud and clear 

Tally ho, your health, my dear 

I went out to see if I could fall in love again 

That was my mistake, why, that was my mistake? 

One by one I counted all those happiest of days 

That was my mistake, that was my mistake 

That was my mistake 

That was my mistake
