Same mistake

Today as i headed back home for lunch, I happened upon a movie i had watched maybe last year or the year before - Gerard Butler's 'PS I love You'. Granted that i am in no way a chick flick buff, yet i found this one forgivable - even slightly enjoyable- because it was the very admirable love between a husband and wife, and the reality of the pain and loss made it very much more real than most fairy tale-esque flicks they churn out nowadays.

But anyway, check out the lyrics. Does it strike a chord with you? I was jsut thinking about making the same mistake again. . . . .(in more ways than 1 ok).

Anyway, here's to breaking the cycle!!


Same Mistake - James Blunt

So while I’m 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

Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh

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

Uhuhhhh

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

Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh

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

Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh

So while I’m turning in my sheets (Uhuh uhuh)
And once again I cannot sleep (Uhuh uhuh)
Walk out the door and up the street (Uhuh uhuh)
Look at the stars, (Uhuh uhuh)
look at the stars, falling down (Uhuh uhuh)
And I wonder where (Uhuh uhuh)
Did I go wrong?
