Looking ba-a-ack over my life I can see where I caused you strife But I know, oh yes I know I'd never make that same mistake again Looking ba-a-ack over my deeds I can see signs a wise man heeds And if I just ha-ad the chance I'd never make that same mistake again Once my cup was overflowing But I gave nothing in retu-you-urn Now I can't begin to te-ell you What a lesson I have learned Looking ba-a-ack over the slate I can see love turned to hate But I know, oh yes I know I'd never make that same mistake again
