Paroles: Don Williams. Looking Back.

Looking back over my life
I can see where I caused you strife
But I know, yes, I know
I'd never make that same mistake again

Looking back over my deeds
I can see signs of wise man heeds
But if I just have a chance
I'd never make that same mistake again

Once my cup was overflowing
I gave nothing in return
Now I can begin to tell you
What a lesson I have learned

Looking back over the slate
I can see, love turn to hate
But I know, yes, I know
I'll never make that same mistake again

But I know, yes, I know
I'll never make that same mistake again
