The Same Mistake

and does he know how lucky he is

to know your touch and to feel your kiss

and that he can stop searching finally

I hope he doesn't make the same mistake as me

I hope he doesn't make the same mistake as me

and does he know you could let him grow

and you know more than he knows

does he know that you could set him really free

I hope he doesn't make the same mistake as me

I hope he doesn't make the same mistake as me

and some can't laugh

and some can't cry

and some can't even smile

no matter how hard they try

and some can't walk

and some can't crawl

and some don't know they're flying

till they're heading for a fall

and is it always greener on the other side

does he get meaner when he's trying to hide

when he won't tell you where he'd really like to be

I hope he doesn't make the same mistake as me

I hope he doesn't make the same mistake as me

does he know how good his life could be

I hope he doesn't make the same mistake as me

I hope he doesn't make the same mistake as me, as me
