[Verse 1]
I don't usually do this
I don’t let myself caught up
I've been rushin' into this
Just because you think I’m someone
[Pre-Chorus]
Special, better (Hmm)
Than anything you've had before
But I know, better
[Chorus]
If it was another time, another place
I wouldn't have to walk away
I could lie and say we'd be okay
Save the burn for another day
If it was another time, another place
I'd let you love me anyway
And let me save you from the pain
I'd rather be alone than be a mistake
[Post-Chorus]
Be a mistake
I'd rather be alone than be a mistake
[Verse 2]
It kills me the more I'm around you
The more than I could fall into love
I know me better than you do
I swear I’m gonna fuck it all up
[Pre-Chorus]
Special, better (Hmm)
All the things you see in me
But I know, better
[Chorus]
If it was another time, another place
I wouldn’t have to walk away
I could lie and say we'd be okay
Save the burn for another day
If it was another time, another place
I’d let you love me anyway
And let me save you from the pain
I'd rather be alone than be a mistake
[Pre-Chorus]
Special, better (Hmm)
Than anything you've had before
But I know, better
[Chorus]
If it was another time, another place
I wouldn't have to walk away
I could lie and say we’d be okay
Save the burn for another day
If it was another time, another place
I'd let you love me anyway
And let me save you from the pain
I'd rather be alone than be a mistake
[Outro]
I'd rather be alone than be a mistake
