If you count all my mistakes I would have to walk away I just could not take another yesterday I've not the strength to fade away Now if I admit defeat Tell me what then will that mean Will I cease to be or will I be redeemed Or will it be the end of me And you ought to know by now To get out from under that cloud That took all my power And it's the only thing that counts Well I smile as I stand here today With all the mistakes I've made Now in my darkest night They're the brightest stars in the sky If you count all my mistakes I would have to walk away I just could not take another yesterday I've not the strength to fade away Fade away And you ought to know by now To get out from under that cloud That took all my power And it's the only thing that counts Well I smile as I stand here today With all the mistakes I've made Now in my darkest night They're the brightest stars in the sky If you count all my mistakes I would have to walk away I just could not take another yesterday I've not the strength to fade away
