The Only Mistake Songtext

von Joy Division

Made the fatal mistake like I did once before
A tendency just to take, till the purpose turned sour
Strain - take the strain - these days we love

Yeah, the only mistake was that you ran away
Avenues lined with trees planned your course for today
Yeah, the only mistake - like I made once before
Yeah, the only mistake - could have made it before
Strain - take the strain - these days we love

And the only mistake led to rumours unfound
Led to pressures unknown - different feelings and sounds
Yeah, the only mistake - like I made once before
Yeah, the only mistake - could have made it before
