"Looking Back" lyrics
"Looking Back"
Looking back over my life
Well, I can see where I caused you strife
But I know, oh yes I know
I'd never
I'd never make that same mistake again
Looking back over my deeds
I can see signs a wise man heeds
And if I just had the chance
I'd never make that same mistake again
Once my cup was overflowing
But I gave nothing in return
Now I can't begin to tell you
What a lesson I have learned
Looking back over the slate
I can see how love has turned to hate
But I know, oh yes I know
I'd never make that same mistake again
Once my cup was overflowing
But I gave nothing in return
Now I can't begin to tell you
What a lesson I have learned
Looking back over the slate
I can see our love, well, it's just hate
But I know, oh yes I know
I'd never make that same mistake again
Thanks to KC for adding these lyrics.

That love was meant for beauty queens
