I went out to see if I could fall in love again
That was my mistake, that was my mistake
I went out to see if I could raise a laugh again
That was my mistake, that was my mistake

When all I needed was a friend
To make me stop and think again
To pull me up and pull me through
Tally-ho, your health my dear

I went out to see if I could live forgotten days
That was my mistake, that was my mistake.
One by one I counted on those happy yesterdays
Yeah that was my mistake, well that was my mistake

What's gone is gone, sweet memories
Don't let them get the best of me
No more lost in history, no more lust for love
All I needed was a friend, to make me stop and think me again
The call to arms is loud and clear
Tally-ho, your health my dear

Oh I went out to see If I could fall in love again
Yeah that was my mistake, well that was my mistake
One by one I counted on those happy yesterdays
Yeah that was my mistake, that was my mistake
That was my mistake (xY)
Ooh-Whoops (xY)
Mistake... mistake... mistake...
