I remember California calling out my name
I remember Carolina and the way she tastes
I fell into Virginia looking for my way
Took the ferry in Seattle to get out of the rain

And I remember watching everybody looking for love
The born agains and newlyweds I met on the run
I lost myself in what I'm not
So I sat down and thought

If I can make an honest mistake, then you can let yourself live this way
If I can make an honest mistake, then you're safe (2x)

I saw you left another message but I won't reply
Saw you disappear completely and I don't know why
I'm selfishly connected to my changing mind
I should lift myself and find the time to
Place a call or write you back
Or start to talk with those I haven't
I'm completely alone, had my time and it passed
But now I have to ask

If I can make an honest mistake, then you can let yourself live this way
If I can make an honest mistake, then you're safe (2x)

Well you can't wait
And I can't change
Apologies endless for ending this way (2x)

If I can make an honest mistake, then you can let yourself live this way
If I can make an honest mistake, then you're safe (2x)

Well you can't wait
And I can't change
Apologies endless for ending this way…
