When You Were Mine

When you were mine

I never once asked why

I was told the sun always lit up the sky

When you were mine

We lived days one day at a time

Before I knew what loneliness could feel like

When you were mine

I aimed where it hurt

Crossed every line

Left you behind

There's no going back

To a place like that

I was so blind

When you were mine

When you were mine

♪

We had it all

Then I broke all the rules

Left a trail of ruins in the promise land

Looking back now

The screen turns black and white

You gave me a diamond, I gave you my knife

When you were mine

I aimed where it hurt

Crossed every line

Left you behind

There's no going back

To a place like that

I was so blind

When you were mine

I was so blind

When you were mine

We all need someone we can trust

When you were mine

Soon all our tears to dust

When you were mine

♪

When you were mine

When you were mine

When you were mine

When you were mine
