My Mistake

Well, I thought I'd been a gambler, and I pegged my baby wrong

Worrying 'bout a nightmare, baby, it's been worrying me too long

I'm just trying to tell you what's been on my mind

Well, you didn't even write me, and I didn't know how come

I sat around and wondered how could I be so awfully dumb

I had the blues so badly, it hurts my mind to talk

I thought you had run a game on me, I hope you understand

Now everything is fine, and I would like to be your man

'Cause you never did a thing to let me down, it's true

Now I've never loved a woman in the way that I love you

It was such a bad, bad scene when I thought that we were through

Well, I cried and I cried, but I ain't gonna cry no more
