Why are you looking at me from across the smoky room? You realize it's half past three and my guitar's all out of tune. And if you knew what I've been through, you would certainly walk as far away from me as your soufflé would carry you. 'Cause I'm a beautiful mistake in a lovely heart. Yes, I will take a break 'cause I've got poison in my veins. I'd love to stay for you. You're saying, girl, I gotta walk away. Yeah. Well, you only live once, and I suppose I'll take a drink, but all this talk of love has made me not even wanna think of all that we've been through. So let's keep this friendly so that we're both okay with the fact I have to leave, 'cause I'm a beautiful mistake in your lovely heart. Yes, I will take a break, 'cause I've got poison in my veins. I'd love to stay, but for your sake, girl, I gotta walk away. Yeah, yeah. Well, you look really nice and I wouldn't think twice about taking you home with me. Yeah. Well, some light conversation and minor flirtation is all that this needs to be. Yeah. 'Cause I'm a beautiful mistake. Your lovely heart I'll take and I'll break. It's got poison in my veins. Oh, love to stay. Oh, for your sake, girl, I gotta walk away. Yeah. Oh man.
