I listen to my stereo
I play a song and I think about the girl
I'm sure she's really not in love
She's probably just another pretty fake
but she'll always be my favourite mistake
try to write the perfect line
but everything i write is typical
I won't impress her with this song
he's probably over my and on the make
but she'll always be my favourite mistake

I'll write another letter and i'll sign it "Always True"
and i'll be dumb enough to write i still love you
so here's to what you're looking for
I'll get out of your way
and here's my favourite picture of my favourite mistake

I stayed in bed 'til three o'clock
Today i think i want to be alone
I'm sure she's not that sad at all
She's got a million other hearts to break
but she'll always be my favourite mistake.
