I remember California calling out my name,
I remember Carolina and the way she tastes,
I fell into Virginia looking for my way,
Took the ferry in Seattle to get out of the rain

And I remember watching everybody looking for love,
The born agains and newlyweds I met on the run,
I lost myself in what I'm not,
So I sat down and thought

If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you can let yourself live this way,
If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you're safe, then you're safe

If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you can let yourself live this way,
If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you're safe, then you're safe

I saw you left another message but I won't reply,
Saw you disappear completely and I don't why,
I'm selfishly connected to my changing mind,
I should lift myself and find the time to,
Place a call or write you back and,
Start to talk with those I haven't

I'm completely alone,
I've had my time and it passed,
But now I have to ask

If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you can let yourself live this way,
If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you're safe, then you're safe

If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you can let yourself live this way,
If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you're safe, then you're safe

Well you can't wait,
And I can't change,
Apologises endless for ending this way

Well you can't wait,
And I can't change,
Apologises endless for ending this way

If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you can let yourself live this way,
If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you're safe, then you're safe

If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you can let yourself live this way,
If I can make a honest mistake,
Then you're safe, then you're safe

Well you can't wait,
And I can't change,
Apologies endless for ending this way
