Mistake (Original Version)

[Verse 1] Packed up things from your house and put them away I knew that I was going to go away From these things but I knew Lifted up the mattress off the fire escape We left the truck door open so you could escape through the fire Through the fire [Chorus] Am I makin' a mistake? Swimmin' the wrong way? Am I? Am I makin' a mistake? Should I hit the breaks? Should I? [Verse 2] When you left that day you didn't hug me goodbye And I called out your name so I could tell you "Goodbye" When you left, goodbye Kissed me on the forehead and said I was strange I looked at you and nodded and said "Okay, I am strange" "I am strange" [Chorus] Am I makin' a mistake? Swimmin' the wrong way? Am I? Am I makin' a mistake? Should I hit the breaks? Should I? You tell me that I am strange, that I need to change Do I? So I am making change, there's no other way This is the only way [Bridge] Am I makin' a mistake? Swimmin' the wrong way? Am I making a mistake? Should I hit the breaks? (Am I makin' a mistake?) [Outro] Am I makin' a mistake? Goin' the wrong way? (I can go but I cannot change my ways) Am I makin' a mistake? Should I hit the breaks? (I can go but I cannot change my ways) Through the fire, through the fire Through the fire Am I makin' a mistake? Am I makin' a mistake? Am I makin' a mistake? Am I makin' a mistake?
