I woke up and called this morning <br />The tone of your voice was a warning <br />That you don't care for me anymore <br /><br />I made up the bed we sleep in <br />I looked at the clock when you creep in <br />It's 6 a.m. and I'm alone <br /><br />[Chorus:] <br />Did you know when you go <br />It's the perfect ending <br />To the bad day I was just beginning <br />When you go all I know is <br />You're my favorite mistake <br /><br />Your friends are sorry for me <br />They watch you pretend to adore me <br />But I'm no fool to this game <br /><br />Now here comes your secret lover <br />She'd be unlike any other <br />Until your guilt goes up in flames <br /><br />[Chorus:] <br />Did you know when you go <br />It's the perfect ending <br />To the bad day I'd gotten used to spending <br />When you go all I know is <br />You're my favorite mistake <br /><br />You're my favorite mistake <br /><br />Well maybe nothin' lasts forever <br />Even when you stay together <br />I don't need forever after <br />It's your laughter won't let me go <br />So I'm holding on this way <br /><br />Did you know, could you tell <br />You were the only one <br />That I ever loved <br />Now everything's so wrong <br /><br />Did you see me walking by? <br />Did it ever make you cry? <br /><br />You're my favorite mistake <br />You're my favorite mistake <br />You're my favorite mistake
