You Used To Be Mine Babe
yesterday in town I was just glancing cross the street
and I saw someone I knew waiting for somebody to meet
but everything's fine babe
these tears that I'm crying babe ?
well you used to be mine babe
judging by your smile there was no attempting to disguise
your happiness with someone else, the raw desire within your eyes
but everything's fine babe
these tears that I'm crying babe ?
well you used to be mine babe
just as if everything that once was had all been erased
wiped from existence and been replaced
you were sharing kisses in an intimate caress
and there was nothing I could do beside stare on in helplessness
but everything's fine babe
these tears that I'm crying babe ?
well you used to be mine babe
though to espy you by chance it hurts to recall what was
I won't expect pity just because
seeing you like this intensifies the fact you're gone
I was rejected, but accepted that the world has now moved on
so everything's fine, babe
these tears that I'm crying babe ?
well, you used to be mine babe
no everything's fine, babe
these tears that I'm crying babe ?
well, you used to be mine, babe
