Brilliant Mistake Songtext
von Minor Majority

You′re no big break, no lifelong quake, just another song
Another bump on disappointment road
Something in your voice, felt like the perfect choice when we were on the phone
Though I'm old, I′m young enough to hope
For another brilliant mistake
Another promise I can't promise not to break

And I'm afraid I′m running out of time
Throw me a rope that I can climb
Watching the waves as they come in and die one by one
When they reach the shore, I′m just not ready yet my Lord
I need time to fail, a little time to heal, before I try again
We learn how to walk, and then we sprint towards the end


Of another brilliant mistake
Another promise I can't promise not to break
But I′m afraid I'm running out of time
Throw me a rope that I can climb

I′m gonna need a little loving to believe
That this is something I can do
For you, it's early morning, for me, it′s after noon
And now you're looking over my shoulder for someone new

I could be your brilliant mistake
That promise you can't promise not to break
Can′t you tell we′re running out of time?
I've gotta keep you close to get you off my mind
So here′s one more, I'm not keeping scores on an all-time low
Though I′m young, I'm old enough to know
