James Blunt - Same Mistake

Saw the world turning in my sheets
And once again, I cannot sleep
Walk out the door and up the street
Look at the stars beneath my feet
Remember rights that I did wrong
So here I go

Hello, hello
There is no place I cannot go
My mind is muddy but
My heart is heavy, does it show?
I lose the track that loses me, so here I go

Oh-ooh
Oh-ooh
Oh-ooh

And so I sent some men to fight
And one came back at dead of night
Said he'd seen my enemy
Said he looked just like me
So I set out to cut myself
And here I go

Oh-ooh
Oh-ooh
Oh-ooh

I'm not calling for a second chance
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don't give me choice
'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again

Oh-ooh

And maybe someday we will meet
And maybe talk, and not just speak
Don't buy the promises, 'cause
There are no promises I keep
And my reflection troubles me
So here I go

Oh-ooh
Oh-ooh
Oh-ooh

I'm not calling for a second chance
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don't give me choice
'Cause I'll just make
The same mistake

I'm not calling for a second chance
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don't give me choice
'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again

Oh-ooh
Oh-ooh
Oh-ooh
Oh-ooh

Saw the world turning in my sheets (oh-ooh)
And once again, I cannot sleep (oh-ooh)
Walk out the door and up the street (oh-ooh)
Look at the stars (ah-ooh)
Look at the stars fall down (ah-ooh)
And wonder where (ah-ooh)
Did I go wrong?
