Make a Mistake Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You overthink things
You say what if we're not meant to be?
Well, you know what? So what?
Make a mistake with me
Nobody goes through this life and does
Everything perfectly
We're all gonna fail, so you might as well
Make a mistake with me

[Bridge]
Sometimes, baby, when we take
A chance that has this much at stake
We look back and in hindsight
What seemed wrong looks more like right

[Verse 2]
So, I say worst case, we'll be left
With lots of good memories
This chance we have, well, it's worth that
So make a mistake with me
I'm telling you, the right thing to do
Is make a mistake
Make a mistake
Make a mistake with me
Whoops, help me out

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
