Half of my mistakes I made stone cold sober
Half of my mistakes I've made at closing time
Half the time I never saw it coming until it was over
Oh, and half of my mistakes I've made with love on the line

Half of my mistakes I swear, I should've known better
Half of my mistakes were just amongst friends
You get a little distance on it, the truth is clearer
Oh, and half of my mistakes I'd probably make 'em again

If I had it all to do over
I'm sure I'd win and lose just as much
But spend less time on right and wrong
And alot more time on love

Half of my mistakes I've made cause I was movin' too quickly
Half of them were made 'cause my heart was movin' too slow
Nobody can tell you a damn thing, if you ain't listening
Oh, and half of my mistakes I've made
'cause I couldn't let go

If I had it all to do over
I'm sure I'd win and lose just as much
But spend less time on right and wrong
And alot more time on love
Half of my mistakes I'd give anything to change how it ended
Oh, and half of my mistakes
God, I wouldn't change one thing
You can lean too hard on a prayer but I don't recommend it
'cause half the good things in my life
Came from half of my mistakes
Yeah, a lot of good things in my life
Came from half of my mistakes
