[Verse 1]
She was a part-time waitress with a dream of greatness
That nobody knew of or even suspected
Though it was sometimes reflected in the slant of a mirror
It was buried so deep and so dear
[Pre-Chorus]
She caught the eye of a guy passing by who said
"My, if I prove to be faithless, you'll surely know why
Oh, why? You'll probably know why"
Then again you may say "Mister, you've got a nerve
Most of us never get just what we deserve"
I'll smile sweetly, "I'm here at your service"
[Chorus]
And the camera walks us through into a sunlit room
Where a one-hit wonder lives
And he says, "Action" and, "That's a take"
You are my most beautiful mistake
[Verse 2]
"It's not your reputation I'm trying to besmirch"
"I'm here undercover, I'm writing this screenplay"
"You might be my inspiration, it's beyond my control"
"So it's my soulful and wounded expression, that you'd like to console?"
