The Same Mistake Lyrics – Cher

{Verse 1}

Crash the car, this road is going nowhere fast
Burn the bed where we once laid
Close the door, there's nothing left to say
Walk the streets, I know the way
I know the way

{Chorus}

Did you wonder how we got to this place?
And as I watched my world go walking out the door
I see I won the peace, but I have lost the war
I know, I know that love is "give" and sometimes "take"
Next time I won't make the same mistake

{Verse 2}

Break the chains, they couldn't hold you anyway
Pray to God this too will pass
Raise your glass to old acquaintances and friends
Talk to me, 'cause I can bend
I can bend

{Chorus}

Did you ever think that we'd turn out this way?
And as I watch my world go walking out the door
I see I won the peace, but I have lost the war
I know, I know that love is "give", the love is "take"
Next time, baby, I won't make the same mistake
The same mistake

{Chorus}

Did you wonder how we got to this place?
And as I watched my world go walking out the door
I see I won the peace, but I have lost the war
I know, I know that love is "give" and sometimes "take"
Next time I won't make the same mistake

{Outro}

Love is sometimes "give"
Love is sometimes "take"
Love is sometimes "give"
