My Mistake (Was To Love You)
Marvin Gaye Song Lyrics
Written by: Pamela Sawyer Gloria Jones Performed by: Marvin Gaye Diana Ross My mistake was to love you, girl Love you, girl My mistake was to give you all Tell the world First I had you In the palm of my hand But I let you slip through Like rain to sand At the beginning When I didn't care Like my own reflection You were always there My mistake was to love you, girl Love you, girl My mistake was to give you all Tell the world You were sweeter Then my very own skin But what did I do for you Not a thing In front of my friends You broke me down Since then darling It's hard to track you down My mistake was to love you, boy Love you, boy My mistake was to give my all Tell the world Many a smile You put om ny face But I paid dearly With the tears I taste My tenderness Made you cold, not sweet 'Cause if a girl loves you You only call her weak My mistake was to love you, boy Love you, boy My mistake was to give my all Tell the world My mistake was to love you, girl Love you, girl My mistake was to give you all Tell the world |
