  • So I never really knew you
    God, I really tried to
    Blindsided, addicted
    Thought we could really do this
    But really, I was foolish
    Hindsight, it's obvious

    Talking with my lawyer
    She said, "Where'd you find this guy?"
    I said, "Young people fall in love
    With the wrong people sometimes"

    Some mistakes get made
    That's alright, that's okay
    You can think that you're in love
    When you're really just in pain
    Some mistakes get made
    That's alright, that's okay
    In the end, it's better for me
    That's the moral of the story, babe

    (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
    (Oh-oh, oh-oh)

    It's funny how a memory
    Turns into a bad dream
    When running wild turns volatile
    Remember how we painted our house?
    Just like my grandparents did
    So romantic, but we fought the whole time
    Should've seen the signs, yeah

    Talking with my mother
    She said, "Where'd you find this guy?"
    Said, "Some people fall in love
    With the wrong people sometimes"

    Some mistakes get made
    That's alright, that's okay
    You can think that you're in love
    When you're really just in pain
    Some mistakes get made
    That's alright, that's okay
    In the end, it's better for me
    That's the moral of the story, babe

    (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
    (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
    (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
    (Oh-oh, oh-oh)

    They say it's better to have loved and lost
    Than never to have loved at all
    That could be a load of-
    But I just need to tell you all

    Some mistakes get made
    That's alright, that's okay
    You can think that you're in love
    When you're really just engaged
    Some mistakes get made
    That's alright, that's okay
    In the end, it's better for me
    That's the moral of the story

    Some mistakes get made
    That's alright, that's okay
    You can think that you're in love
    When you're really just in pain
    Some mistakes get made
    That's alright, that's okay
    In the end, it's better for me
    That's the moral of the story, babe

    (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
    (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
    (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
    (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
    (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
