It really is a miracle that I have come this far.

Without a hope without a prayer without a guiding star.

In spite of my nativity and many dreams betrayed,

I know I would not be here now

but for Mistakes I Made



But for Mistakes I Made

Who knows who I might be

Some other heart some other soul

Some other destiny

But for the times I took a wrong turn unafraid

I might have missed it all

But for Mistakes I Made

So many times I've tried to change things out of my control.

The jealousy and all the rage that swallowed me up whole.

The years that I spent loving those who did not feel the same.

The times I didn't trust myself with only me to blame.



But for Mistakes I Made

Who knows where I might be

Some other place some other time

Some other destiny

But for the times I took a wrong turn unafraid

I might have missed it all

But for Mistakes I Made



These things have taught me what is real

How to laugh how to cry how to love without regret

and when to say hello..or goodbye

I know whatever comes my way my dues have all been paid.

For you would not be in my life, but for Mistakes I Made



But for Mistakes I Made

Who knows who I might be

Some other heart some other soul

Some other destiny

But for the times I took a wrong turn unafraid

I might have missed it all

But for Mistakes I Made

I might have missed it all

But for Mistakes I Made
