If You Were Mine To Lose

(album: Jewels - 1968)

If you were mine to lose I'd gladly let you go
'Cause that would mean you once belonged to me
I'd gladly take the heartache of losing you some day
'Cause then at least I'd have the memory.

Through all the years I've known you you've never noticed me
Just a friend that's all I've been to you
I'd gladly let you break my heart for just one memory
Just to know that you were mine to lose.

If I could only hold you just one time
for one short moment heaven would be mine
If you were mine to lose I'd gladly let you go
Just to know that you were mine to lose.

I could only hold you just one time
for one short moment heaven would be mine
If you were mine to lose I'd gladly let you go
Just to know that you were mine to lose...
