The Only Mistake
Bernard Sumner / Ian Curtis / Joy Division / Peter Hook / Stephen Morris
Made the fatal mistake
Like I did once before
A tendency just to take
Til the purpose turned sour
Strain, take the strain
These days we love
Strain, take the strain
These days we love
Yeah, the only mistake
Was that you ran away
Avenues lined with trees
Strangled words for the day
Yeah, the only mistake
Like I made once before
Yeah, the only mistake
Could have made it before
Strain, take the strain
These days we love
Strain, take the strain
These days we love
And the only mistake
Led to rumours unfound
Led to pressures unknown
Different feelings and sounds
Yeah, the only mistake
Like I made once before
Yeah, the only mistake
Could have made it before
