Mistakes is the second single of Tove Styrke’s album Sway. She wrote the song with Elof Loelv and released it in September 15th, 2017.
In an interview, Styrke explains the meaning of the song:
I guess the main theme for me is, you know whe life is almost too smooth sometimes? When you feel like yo...
[Verse 1]
I should probably leave, right?
You got me buzzin' like a street light
And I've been trying to put it behind
But can't deny we got a real vibe
You doing something I can't explain now
Putting pictures on my brain now
But really I should get some me time
Before I do something I can't rewind
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh baby, gimme highs and lows
Wanna get close, no clothes
I don't feel like going home now
Got me all up in the zone now
Oh baby, gimme highs and lows
Wanna get close, no clothes
Probably better if I go now
[Chorus]
You make me, you make me
You make me wanna make mistakes
Love how bittersweet it tastes
He-he-hey
You make me, you make me
You make me wanna make mistakes
Bend my heart until it breaks
He-he-hey
[Verse 2]
You say a lot in between lines
It's in the air like real high
You make it really hard to leave
I know I'm gonna want to get out of my Levi's
You doing something I can't explain
Putting pictures on my brain (putting pictures on)
And really I should get some me time
But in the meantime, some you and me time
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh baby, gimme highs and lows
Wanna get close, no clothes
I don't feel like going home now
Got me all up in the zone now
Oh baby, gimme highs and lows
And mixin' up the do's and dont's
Probably better if I go now
[Chorus]
You make me, you make me
You make me wanna make mistakes
Love how bittersweet it tastes
He-he-hey
You make me, you make me
You make me wanna make mistakes
Bend my heart until it breaks
He-he-hey
You make me, you make me
You make me wanna make mistakes
Love how bittersweet it tastes
[Bridge]
I've been trying to take it slow
But you're making it impossible
I don't wanna think it through
I just wanna... with you, ooh, mmm
He-he-hey
[Chorus]
You make me, you make me
You make me wanna make mistakes
Love how bittersweet it tastes (it tastes like)
He-he-hey
You make me, you make me
You make me wanna make mistakes
Bend my heart until it breaks
He-he-hey
You make me, you make me
You make me wanna make mistakes
Love how bittersweet it tastes (it tastes like)
He-he-hey
You make me, you make me
You make me wanna make mistakes
Bend my heart until it breaks
He-he-hey

Tove said about “Mistakes” in an interview:
Sometimes you need chaos to feel in control. I mean, if I can shake myself around a bit that proves to me that I’m not powerless in my life. Even when it feels that way. Mistakes can be about a person or yourself or just life in general. But I guess the p...
