You Were Mine - Tami Neilson

Take my heart

It used to be so supple and sweet

And now it’s withered on the vine

There’s before and then there’s after

You were mine

Take my faith

So strong and full of fire

Now it’s bruised, broken down and blind

There’s before and then there’s after

You were mine

You were mine

Sun comes up, sun goes down

World keeps rollin' around and around

The hands on the clock going, «Tick-tock-tick-tock»

Ain’t the way I measure time

There’s just before and then there’s after

You were mine

You were mine

Take my hands, they used to hold you so tight

Now they reach, but they never touch you in the night

There’s before and then there’s after

You were mine

You were mine, mine, mine

Sun comes up, sun goes down

World keeps rollin' around and around

The hands on the clock going, «Tick-tock-tick-tock»

That ain’t the way that I measure time

There’s just before and then there’s after

There’s before and then there’s after

There’s before, there’s before and then there’s after

You were mine

You were mine, you were mine, you were mine

Oh, yeah-yeah, oh, yeah-yeah

Oh-ho-ho

You were mine, you were mine, you were mine, yeah
