Mine to Love

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
Never mine to love
We kept each others 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
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
You were mine but you were never mine to love
