When love comes so late
It'll really hit hard
It slams through the gate
It'll catch you off guard
And everyone said
what a perfect love match
Cause she is so smart
She's a hell of a catch

I was drinking in love
Gulping it down
Drifting for months
On a billowing cloud
But after a while
I start to rebel
I'm back in the past
And I'm raising up hell

But I think I just made
The biggest mistake of my life
And I think I just made the biggest mistake of my life

We'd been living together for over a year
The harmony's perfect, it rang loud and clear
But then very slowly, my nerves start to fray
It's the little things baby
That's what they say
I acted impatient, I acted unkind
I took her for granted
I played with her mind
She didn't deserve it, but it was too late
I walked out the door and left her to her fate

But I think I just made
The biggest mistake of my life
But I think I just made
The biggest mistake of my life

Now I'm down in a slump
And I'm eating alone
I'm rueined the day
With some friends on the phone
I never go out I'm becoming a grouch
I just watch the tv and I drink on the couch
If love comes again I'll be really surprised
I'll grab it real fast
Keep it right in my sights

'Cause I think I just made the biggest mistake of my life
Well I think I just made the biggest mistake of my life
Well I think I just made the biggest mistake of my life
