"You Were Mine" by Dixie Chicks (Emily Erwin/Martie Seidel)

1st Verse

I can't find a reason to let go
Even though you've found a new love
And she's what your dreams are made of
I can find a reason to hang on
What went wrong can be forgiven
Without you it ain't worth livin' alone

Chorus

Sometimes I wake up cryin' at night
And sometimes I scream out your name
What right does she have to take you (your heart) away
When for so long you were mine

2nd Verse

(I) took out all the pictures of our wedding day
It was a time of love and laughter
Happy ever after
But even those old pictures have begun to fade
Please tell me she's not real
And that you're really comin' home to stay

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

I can give you two good reasons
To show you love's not blind
He's two and she's four and you know they adore you
So how can I tell them you've changed your mind

(Repeat Chorus)

I remember when you were mine
