Jake Wesley Rogers - My Mistake Lyrics

Kerosene eyes
I saw the future, it burned me alive
I broke his heart in one night
And I left Missouri behind

Thought he was the one
Tortured soul in a preacher's son
Yeah, he prayed on his knees
He preyed on my need to be the light

Someone's gotta love me not in vain
Somebody's gotta love me just the same
Somebody's gonna love me, I know it's true
My mistake was thinking it was you

Sometimes I forget
It wasn't always so innocent
He put a ring in my hand
I lied when I said
I wouldn't leave

That was years ago
But it was always inevitable
Yeah, most days he's gone
Some days he comes and talks to me, to me

Someone's gotta love me not in vain
Somebody's gotta love me just the same
Somebody's gonna love me, I know it's true
My mistake was thinking it was you

Ooh, ooh
Yeah, it took some time
To see the difference
Between him and I
And I'm still not quite sure
Just what I deserve
But Someone's gotta love me
Someone's gotta love me
Someone's gotta love me, I know it's true

Someone's gotta love me
Someone's gotta love me
Somebody's gonna love me I know it's true
My mistake was thinking it was you

Ooh ooh, it's true
My mistake was thinking it was you
