Looking Back — Nat King Cole

Looking back over my life I can see where I caused you strife But I know, oh yes I know I'd never make that same mistake again

Looking back over my deeds I can see signs a wise man heeds And if I just had the chance I'd never make that same mistake again

Once my cup was overflowing But I gave nothing in return Now I can't begin to tell you What a lesson I have learned

Looking back over the slate I can see love turned to hate But I know, oh yes I know I'd never make that same mistake again
