Every Mistake
i've had my share of bad wrecks
stumbles and falls
had my back up against a few walls
fought my way out
hit my knees
had my doubts
but i'm here now
oh
every mistake led me to you
every heart ache i've been through
made it so i'm standing here
without any fear
i couldn't give all of me
if i hadn't broken piece for piece
wouldn't be what you see
if it wasn't for these scars
on my heart
so i wouldn't change a thing
i had to break
to be what you need
so i'm happy for every mistake
you had people tear you down
kick you when you were on the ground
thought you'd never get back up
but look at you baby
standing tough
thought you took too many wrong turns
but they were all a lesson you had to learn
oh
every mistake led me to you
every heart ache i've been through
made it so i'm standing here
without any fear
i couldn't give all of me
if i hadn't broken piece for piece
wouldn't be what you see
if it wasn't for these scars
on my heart
so i wouldn't change a thing
i had to break
to be what you need
so i'm happy for every mistake
girl we're stronger now
all the pain
made us change
to who we were suppose to be
yeah it brought you here to me
oh
every mistake led me to you
every heart ache i've been through
made it so i'm standing here
without any fear
i couldn't give all of me
if i hadn't broken piece for piece
wouldn't be what you see
if it wasn't for these scars
on my heart
so i wouldn't change a thing
i had to break
to be what you need
so i'm happy for every mistake
