Mistakes
Love's Redemption: Navigating Life's Twists in Don Williams' 'Mistakes'
Lyrics
People tell me, boy you're crazy
People criticize me, saying I'm acting irrationally
Some people say that I'm nuts
Some individuals believe that I am behaving strangely
For trying to get back together with you baby
Attempting to reconcile with you despite the challenges
They say that once is enough
People suggest that one attempt should be sufficient
I should never have left you cause now I need you
Regretting the decision to leave you because I now realize I need you
Sometimes it happens that way
Admitting that sometimes life unfolds in unexpected ways
I come back like a fool who's believing
Returning like a foolish person who still believes in our relationship
No matter what they might say
Ignoring what others say, convinced of my feelings for you
I don't want to hear another word
Expressing a desire to avoid hearing any more opinions
Don't need your well thought out advice
Rejecting the need for well-intentioned advice
Though I thank you all for being kind
Grateful for the kindness of others, but acknowledging independence
I can make mistakes myself just fine
Acknowledging personal capability to make mistakes without assistance
I've got a good friend who knows my trouble
Referring to a friend who thinks I'm wasting time on my troubles
he thinks I'm wasting my time
Suggesting advice to have fun and explore other options
He said go out and have some fun she's not the only one
Being advised to move on as there are other potential partners
But I can't leave her behind
Expressing difficulty in leaving you behind despite advice
So, I don't want to hear another word
Reiterating the desire to avoid further commentary or advice
Don't need your well thought out advice
Emphasizing the rejection of well-thought-out advice
Though I thank you all for being kind
Expressing gratitude for kindness but asserting self-reliance
I can make mistakes myself just fine
Reaffirming the ability to handle and learn from personal mistakes
