Billy Walker - Mistakes Lyrics

I remember when I was the world's richest man
But true love and a simple life were like chains on hands
The wild streak inside me broke free from the chains
But tonight this poor fool craves his riches again

Mistakes mistakes careless mistakes
I wonder just how many one man can make
But to be a failure I know what it takes
To be burdened down with careless mistakes

[ piano ]
How long are the nights and so bitter the wine
And this girl don't measure up to that woman of mine
But there's no need of dreaming it's all lost to me
What I thought was my future turned out to be

Mistakes mistakes careless mistakes...
Careless mistakes
