Friday night, we went out despite all the signs and our friends' advice
You wore that bubblegum dress the same one from your birthday and I confess
That I was a mess
I was a mess
Dinner down Park Avenue and you loved the food I happened to choose
We had some wine and a really nice time, I couldn't believe that you were mine
But I was a mess
I was a mess
I messed up the very thing I never ever thought I'd lose
And I messed up because I didn't think
Now all I ever sing are the blues
You made me feel like I was on top of the world
But I did not listen to you or myself
Oh I messed up lovin' you girl
We were young having fun, but something unraveled and came undone
I misread and disregarded important feelings you tried to express
And I was a mess
Oh I'm still a mess
I messed up the very thing I never ever thought I'd lose
And I messed up because I didn't think
Now all I ever sing are the blues
You made me feel like I was on top of the world
But I did not listen to you or myself
Oh I messed up lovin' you girl
You didn't want to hurt me, oh no
But my demons led us down the catacombs
I addressed my stress, but fessed distress that tested you most every day
And the rest, you guessed, I messed the best of friendships I ever made
I messed up the very thing I never ever thought I'd lose
And I messed up because I did not think
Now all I ever sing are the blues
You made me feel like I was on top of the world
But I did not listen to you or myself
Oh I really messed up (I really messed up)
I really messed up
Really messed up
Oh I messed up lovin' you
Girl (Ahhh)
