Lori McKenna
Latest Mistake
[Verse 1]
There is part of me that wants an answer
And part of me that doesn't wanna know
Part of you that I am in love with
And the part that I am willing to let go
[Verse 2]
This is a delicate unraveling
Now and then I find pieces on the floor
Tiny little bits that tell me
Maybe I shouldn't say this
Or love you anymore
'
[Pre-Chorus]
Someone's gonna have to fess up
Someone's gonna have to clean this mess up
[Chorus]
I wanted you the first time
I loved you from the second
Don't know how that ever goes away
And as far as I can tell
You're really good at talking
I think it's time that you let me know
I'm just your latest mistake
[Verse 3]
Wonder what will make you happy
I wonder what you'll do with it all
I have a map in my head
Somehow still don't understand
Why I always have to miss you
Why I have to make the call
[Pre-Chorus]
Someone's gonna have to step up
Someone's gonna have to clean this mess up
[Chorus]
I wanted you the first time
I loved you from the second
Don't know how that ever goes away
And as far as I can tell
You're really good at talking
I think it's time that you let me know
I'm just your latest mistake
[Bridge]
Before you drive me away
Take a good look at me, baby
Picture me not lyin' on your couch
Well, I wish the best for you
Every time you go through this
Before you finally figure it out
[Chorus]
'Cause I wanted you the first time
I loved you from the second
Don't know how that ever goes away
And as far as I can tell
You're really good at talking
I think it's time that you let me know
I think it's time that you let me know
I'm just your latest
I'm just your latest mistake
Oh, I'm just your latest mistake
