When love comes so late

It´ll really hit hard

It slams through the gate

It´ll catch you off guard

Everyone saidw what a perfect love match

Cause she is so smart, she´s a hell of a catch



I was drinking in love

Gulping it down

Drifting for months on a billowing cloud

But after a while I stopped to rebel

I´m back in the past and I´m raising up hell



But I think I just made the biggest mistake of my life

And I think I just made the biggest mistake of my life



We´d been living together for over a year

The harmony´s perfect, it rang loud and clear

But then very slowly

My nerves start to fray

The little things big

That´s what they say



I acted impatient, I acted unkind

I took her for granted

I played with her mind

She didn´t deserve it but it was too late

I walked out the door and left her to her fate



But I think I just made the biggest mistake of my life

And I think I just made the biggest mistake of my life



Now I´m down in a slump and I´m eating alone

I ruined the day with some friends on the phone

I never go out, I´m becoming a grouch

I just watch the TV and I drink on the couch



But if love comes again

I´ll be really surprised

I´ll grab it real fast

Keep it right in my sights



Cause I think I just made the biggest mistake of my life

Well I think I just made the biggest mistake of my life
