My Favorite Mistake - Sheryl Crow

I woke up and called this morning

The tone of your voice was a warning

That you don’t care for me anymore

I made up the bed we sleep in I looked at the clock when you creep in It’s 6 a.m. and I’m alone

Did you know when you go It’s the perfect ending

To the bad day I was just beginning

When you go all I know is You’re my favorite mistake

Your friends are sorry for me They watch you pretend to adore me But I’m no fool to this game

Now here comes your secret lover

She’d be unlike any other

Until your guilt goes up in flames

Chorus

You’re my favorite mistake

Well maybe nothin' lasts forever

Even when you stay together

I don’t need forever after

It’s your laughter won’t let me go So I’m holding on this way

Did you know, could you tell

You were the only one

That I ever loved

Now everything’s so wrong

Did you see me walking by?

Did it ever make you cry?

You’re my favorite mistake

You’re my favorite mistake

You’re my favorite mistake
