When You Were Mine

(album: Talking Pictures - 2020)

Let love take you where it will
Under the stars, over the hill
Still waiting on that telephone bill
That shows how much I need you

Let love crawl beneath your skin
Help your heart let the right one in
I dialed your number and let it ring
With a book each night to read you

"Oh my disenchanted valentine
My one true love, my perfect crime
It all made sense, every broken sign
When I was yours and when you were mine"

Let love hold your head up high
Let others doubt when you pass by
Give you belief and the strength inside
That knows beyond all reason

"Oh my disenchanted valentine
My one true love, my perfect crime
It all made sense, every broken sign
When I was yours, when you were mine"

For every tear that rains in here
And every heart still wounded
From the ghosting of a crumbled love
Can I move along?
Can I just move along the way that you did?

I know I've been lucky to find
A heart like yours so warm and kind
How I miss the tone of your telephone line
When I was yours
When I was yours and when you were mine

When I was yours and when you were mine
