When You Were Mine

When you were mine

Some memories

Of days gone by

Just memories

I close my eyes

And you are here again

And I feel once more the pain

When you were mine

When you were mine

I was too young

To understand

So much too young

When you were mine

I rushed at life

Head over heels

Just like a child

When you were mine

There were no bounds

To live or love

My dreams could grow

And carry me

Into your heart

When you were mine

When you were mine

And then one day

I turned aside

Just to play

And so much died

And I began

To understand

I've lost your love

I've lost your love

In days gone by

When you were mine

When you were mine

We were too young

To understand

So much too young

When you were mine

Life seemed to be

A flight into eternity

When you were mine

I reached the sky

I had your love

And wings to fly

Life seemed to be

An exciting game

When you were mine

When you were mine

And then one day

You turned aside

Just to play

And so much died

You gave your love

For a moment's dream

When you were mine

When you were mine

When you were mine

In days gone byWhen you were mine

Some memories

Of days gone by

Just memories

Until today

Past seems to be alive

'Cause a memory won't die

When you were mine

When you were mine

We were too young

To understand

We're much too young

When you were mine

Life seemed to be

A flight into eternity

When you were mine

I reached the sky

I had your love

And wings to fly

Life seemed to be

An exciting game

When you were mine

When you were mine
