Lyrics 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 ha-ad 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
