Everywhere I go
Everything I do
Reminds me of you
Just a picture of the wall
I'm surrounded by it all gotta walk before I fall

Fall out, out on the street
Street light, light over me so far from where I used to be
Where she was mine

Everything was easy everything was simple
Never felt so good when she was mine
I wanted to remember
Never missed a second
Never wish I could forget
Forget when she was mine, mine, yeah
When she was mine, mine, yeah

What I miss the most
Is talking up all night
We laughed until we cried
Now I'm breaking at the seams
Dropping to my knees
Nothing left of me

Black stone turned into dust
My heart wasn't enough
So far from where I used to be
When she was mine!

Everything was easy everything was simple
Never felt so good when she was mine
I wanted to remember
Never missed a second
Never wish I could forget
Forget when she was mine, mine, yeah
When she was mine, mine, yeah

I wonder if she's out there, I wonder where she goes, she goes
I wonder what she's doing, will I ever know her, oh yeah

Everything was easy everything was simple
Never felt so good when she was mine
I wanted to remember
Never missed a second
Never wish I could forget
Forget when she was mine, mine, yeah
When she was mine, mine, yeah

Down to my knees, gotta see her, gotta see her
Tried to forget but I need her, but I need her

When she was mine
