As Karl Wallenda fell of his wire Cause the wind took him by surprise A woman gave birth to a baby And then she fell into the night Lines were crossed and things got lost And I fell in love again for a while Spring came early this year But it was all in vain What a beautiful mistake We made What a beautiful mistake 1978 The queen wrote her story As the king fought for glory And I just stumbled down my street For what is a life but endless needs I cannot seem to find much sleep Loosen up, my dear old friend Before the monsters come for you again And drag you around like a circus horse In a show that you don't know where it ends What a beautiful mistake We made What a beautiful mistake 1978 Time don't really worry me anymore Cause after all what is it that I've got That cannot be replaced by a simple twist of faith It's getting hard to love these days What a beautiful mistake We made What a beautiful mistake 1978 Time don't really worry me anymore Cause after all what is it that I've got That cannot be replaced by a simple twist of faith It's getting hard to love these days
