When you were mine
I gave you all of my money
Time after time
You've done me wrong
It was just like a dream
You let all my friends come over and meet
You were so strange
You didn't have the decency to change the sheets
Oh girl, when you were mine
I used to let you wear all my clothes
You were so fine (so fine)
Maybe that's the reason
That you hurt me so
I know (I know)
That you're going with another guy
I don't care (don't care)
'Cause I love you, baby, that's no lie
I love you more than I did
When you were mine
When you were mine
You were kinda sorta my best friend
So I was blind
I let you fool around
I never cared
I never was the kind to make a fuss
When he was there
Sleeping inbetween the two of us
I know (I know)
That you're going with another guy
I don't care (don't care)
'Cause I love you, baby, that's no lie
I love you more than I did
When you were mine
When you were mine
You were all I ever wanted to do
I spend my time
Following him whenever he's with you
I know (I know)
That you're going with another guy
I don't care (don't care)
'Cause I love you, baby, that's no lie
I love you more that I did
When you were mine
