My greatest mistake was falling in love
Falling in love with you
My greatest mistake was dreaming of you
And thinking my dreams would come true

It was easy to see
You never loved me
Though I hoped and I prayed
Someday it could be

My greatest mistake
My greatest heartache
Was falling in love with you

Darling, you know my greatest mistake
Was falling in love
And I mean falling in love with a beautiful gal like you, mmm
You know, I made another mistake
Know what that was?
Just dreaming of you and being foolish enough to think
That all my dreams was bound to come true
You know, shoulda been easy for me to see
That, honey child, you never loved me
But I hoped and I prayed
That maybe someday it could be
My greatest mistake
My greatest heartache
Was falling in love with you
