You happened like a sudden storm that caught me my surprise
|
In an accidental devastating moment of my life
|
You upset me with your kindness
|
You upset me with your smile
|
You cracked my heart wide open and I felt alive for a little while
|
|
You were mine, mine to hold in the rain out in the cold
|
With a stolen cup of coffee at a place that no one knows
|
You were mine just enough that each breath I take keeps getting tough
|
And every kiss is running out of time
|
You were mine, but you were never mine to love
|
|
We kept each other's secrets
|
And we never made demands
|
It was so exciting never making any kind of plans
|
We tore up all the rule books and we cast them to the wind
|
Now I'm left just chasing pages trying find myself again
|
|
You were mine, mine to hold sharing tales we never told
|
On a long lost day last summer with the sand beneath our toes
|
You were mine, just enough that each breath I take keeps getting tough
|
And every kiss is running out of time
|
You were mine, but you were never mine to love
|
|
You were mine just for a minute like a roller-coaster ride
|
I was scared when I got in it then I laughed until I cried
|
Now I'm back at the beginning and I'm walking out the door
|
'Cause you know I just can't do this anymore
|
Oh you know I just can't do it anymore
|
|
You were mine, mine to hold now the leaves are turning gold
|
And the year we spent together burns forever in my soul
|
You were mine just enough that each breath I take keeps getting tough
|
And every kiss is running out of time wish me luck I'll be fine
|
You were mine, but you were never mine to love
|
