joe iconis - all the mistakes that he made about the girl lyrics

Loading...

all the mistakes that he made about the girl
don’t bother him as much as everyone thinks
all the mistakes that he made about the girl
are different from the mistakes he makes when he drinks

and i’d bet you’d like to think he’s got so many regrets
but the way he sees it, he did nothing wrong
nah, a man has many loves, a man moves on, a man forgets
and if there’s anything else to say then i guess he writes a song

okay, so all the mistakes that he made about the girl
according to her were unforgivable
but the anger and the objects he would hurl
were not the things that made life unlivable

no, the absolute number one thing
was she’d melt every time that he’d sing
and she’d tell him she loved him and he would just play
’cause if he wasn’t singing he just couldn’t say
and she couldn’t handle that he was that way

i guess those are the breaks
i guess there were mistakes

all the mistakes that he made about the girl
weren’t all that bad when compared to other men
all the mistakes that he made about the girl
he understands when he picks up his pen

so what if he had trouble letting down his guard
it wasn’t his fault she was so quick to feel
and maybe he’d been hurt, maybe he’d been scarred
or maybe he was just afraid of what was getting real

and the absolute number one thing
was she’d melt every time that he’d sing
and she’d tell him stop hiding behind what you play
she’d ask “what are you scared of” but he wouldn’t say
he just banged and yelled “louder” ’till she went away, hey, hey

i guess that’s all that it takes
and yes there were mistakes

but it doesn’t matter anymore
because she’s not coming back
no, she’s not coming back

and it doesn’t matter anymore
all he can hope to do
is use the experience to
try to understand why what he did left the girl brokenhearted

but instead he’ll just use it as fuel to keep writing his song
before long he’ll be back where he started

all the mistakes that he made about the girl
he finds himself thinking about a lot these days
all the mistakes that he made about the girl
keep f-cking with his life in such surprising ways

and he likes to think that if he had to do it again
he could fix the things that he did all wrong
and he’s not the same as he was back then
and then he goes back to his stupid song

but the one thing that’s totally clear
is he wishes she was still here
and he tries to be different, he’s still out of touch
and his current relationships prove just as much
and his songs and his words, they still serve as his crutch

and even those are a lie
’cause he don’t use the word “i”
nah, this man hides behind “he”

well, that’s what i would do if it were me
but it’s obviously not
and that’s all that i got
