She came in the door and walked to the bar and I guess my face turned white
I hadn't seen her in a long time and I didn't want to see her tonight
The lady who was sharing the table with me said is that somebody you know
I watched as a stranger bought her a drink and I said you might say so
She's a mistake I made when I was twenty-one
I did a lot of crazy things back when I was young
And I've still got her footprints on my heart and on my mind
She's a mistake I made when I was twenty-one
And twenty-four and twenty-eight and twenty-nine
She thought my heart was a revolving door she came and went as she pleased
For every night I spent in her arms I spent two on my knees
Begging her to stay and live in my world needing her desperately
Look up fool in the dictionary and you'll find a picture of me
She's a mistake I made...
There's no fool like a young fool I've heard 'em say
But I'm not sure that I'm mature enough to walk away even today
She's a mistake I made...
