Ever since you left me
I'e been finding clues
That you were never really here at all
With the benefit of hindsight
Pointin out the truth
I see I was a fool to ever fall
I knew she was your first love
I hoped I'd be your last
I think I know the answer
But I've still got to ask
Were you ever really mine
Or was it you and her and me
When you looked into my eyes
Tell me now who did you see
Was there one magic hour
Her memory held no power
Or was every single moment just a lie
Were you ever really mine
Times that you were distant
Lost within yourself
I see now you were with her in your mind
I was careful not to crowd you
And give you room to breathe
But there ain't enough space to live two lives
Well I'll let you close this chapter
But don't think I'm owed
An answer to a question
That only your heart knows
Were you ever really mine
Or was it you and her and me
When you looked into my eyes
Tell me now who did you see
Was there one magic hour
Her memory held no power
Or was every single moment just a lie
Were you ever really mine
Was there ever one magic hour
Her memory held no power
Or was every single moment a lie
Were you ever really mine
