It Can't Be a Mistake

It can't be a mistake
When it's you I see
Can't square a circle
Can't swallow the sea
It can't be a mistake 
When you look at me

I've played, been burned 
I've lost, not learned
Converted, not turned
So it's knowledge well-earned
As far as you're concerned

It can't be a mistake
When it's you I see
Can't square a circle
Can't swallow the sea
It can't be a mistake 
When you look at me

Saw your first blink 
Gave your first drink 
Taught you to swim, not sink
Raised you to pray, to think

It can't be a mistake
When it's you I see
Can't square a circle
Can't swallow the sea
It can't be a mistake 
When you look at me

Whatever happens tonight
Be it peace or spite
When you lose the good fight
Know this is right

​It can't be a mistake
When it's you I see
Can't square a circle
Can't swallow the sea
It can't be a mistake 
When you look at me
