Mine Lyrics

I haven't had a grip on reality in years

I've spent too much time wiping my tears

Head resting on windowsill trying to find out where the thrill has gone

Long gone

And I've met

Many faces and been to many destinations

Since when your hands used to hold mine

Your skin so close to me, I could've sworn it was my own

And I still hear your voice all the time

When I think about the days when you were mine

Sometimes I think about January

Dark green sweater and baby blue jeans

Cold noses in the frosty air, both stuck up refusing to back down

Way down

And I've met

Many faces and been to many destinations

Since when your hands used to hold mine

Your skin so close to me, I could've sworn it was my own

And I still hear your voice all the time

When I think about the days when you were mine

I wrote a letter and put the postage in the corner

But I never heard from you again

You were so close to me, I could've sworn you were my own

And in my head I wonder all the time

If I had spoken up and you had stayed around

Would you still be mine

Oh what a noble mind is here o'erthrown

My love lay in a river and a bed of lilies has grown

And when I see you in the street

A ghost of you is all I see

I took the better parts with me

And laid them down
