My Mistake (Was to Love You) [Duet with Marvin Gaye]

Ohh, baby
Ohh, baby
My mistake was to love you, girl
Love you, girl
My mistake was to give my all
Tell the world
First I had you
In the palm of my hand
But I let you slip through
Like grains of sand
At the beginning
When I didn't care
Like my own reflection
You were always there
My mistake was to love you, girl
To love you, girl
My mistake, baby, was to give my all
Tell the world
You were sweeter
Than my very own kin
But what did I do for you?
Not a thing
In front of my friends
You broke me down
Since then, darling
It's hard to track you down
My mistake was to love you, boy
Love you, boy
My mistake was to give my all
Tell the world
Yeah, baby
Ohh, my mistake, yeah
Many a smile
You put on my face
But I paid dearly
With the tears I taste
My tenderness
Made you cold, not sweet
'Cause if a girl loves you
You only call her weak
My mistake was to love you, boy
Love you, boy (oh, love you, girl)
My mistake was to give my all
Tell the world
My (my, my) mistake
Was to love you, girl (love you, boy)
Love you, girl (love you, boy)
My (my, my) mistake, baby
Was to give my all
Tell the world
My (my, my) mistake
Was to love you, girl (love you, boy)
Love you, girl (love you, boy)
My (my)
