Lyrics
When You Were Mine
Well I been thinkina€™ about all the things that you said
Dona€™t know what was goina€™ through my head at the time
Musta been blind
You had it all figured out from beginning to end
Now ita€™s all I can do to maintain some sense of pride
Keep it inside
Went for a ride
Now therea€™s nowhere to hide
Another day passes by and youa€™re still on my mind
I guess I really believed we would go on forever
When you were mine
It was a long time ago and too far away
To remember the promises made in the dead of night
Couldna€™t be right
We wanted it all and we wanted it then
I should have known when I saw the end in sight
Run for your life
Another day passes by and youa€™re still on my mind
You know I really believed we would go on forever
When you were mine
Do anything that you wanna do
Ia€™ll get along just fine without you
Holding my own in this empty room
Singina€™ along with the radio
Watchina€™ the late night TV show
Wondering if youa€™re gonna come back soon
