Half Of My Mistakes - Radney Foster

Half of my mistakes I made stone cold sober
Half of my mistakes I made at closing time 
Half the time I never saw it coming Œtil it was over 
Half of my mistakes I made with love on the line 

Half of my mistakes I swear I should have known better 
Half of my mistakes were just amongst friends 
You get a little distance on it the truth is clearer 
Half of my mistakes, I¹d probably make Œem again. 

(Chorus) 
So if I had it all to do over I¹m sure I¹d win and lose just as much 
Spend less time on right and wrong 
And a lot more time on love. 

Half of my mistakes I made Œcause I was moving too quickly 
Half of Œem were made Œcause my heart was moving too slow 
Nobody can tell you a damn thing if you ain't listening 
Half of my mistakes I made Œcause I couldn¹t let go 

(Repeat chorus) 

Half of my mistakes I¹d give anything to change how it ended 
Half of my mistakes, God, I wouldn¹t change a thing 
You can lean too hard on regrets, but I don¹t recommend it
Because half the good things in life came from half of my mistakes 

Yeah, a lot of good things in my life come from half my mistakes.
