You Were Mine

dixie chicks - you were mine

i can't find a reason to let go

even though you've found a new love

and she's what your dreams are made of

i can't find a reason to hang on

what went wrong can be forgiven

without you it ain't worth livin' alone

sometimes i wake up crying at night

and sometimes i scream out your name

what right does she have to take you away

when for so long you were mine

took out all the pictures of our wedding day

it was a time of love and laughter

happy ever after

but even those old pictures have begun to fade

please tell me she's not real

and that you're really comin' home to stay

sometimes i wake up crying at night

and sometimes i scream out your name

what right does she have to take your heart away

when for so long you were mine

i can give you two good reasons

to show you love's not blind

he's two and she's four

and you know they adore you

so how can i tell them

you've changed your mind

sometimes i wake up crying at night

and sometimes i scream out your name

what right does she have to take your heart away

when for so long you were mine

i remember when you were mine
