Bright Eyes - When You Were Mine Lyrics

Bright Eyes Lyrics

"When You Were Mine"
(originally by Prince)

When you were mine
I gave you all of my money
Time after time
You done me wrong
Just like a train
You let all of my friends come over and meet
You were so strange
You didn't have the decency to change the sheets
Oh, when you were mine
I used to let you wear all of my clothes
You were so fine
Maybe that's the reason that it hurt me so

I know (I know)
That you're going with another guy
I don't care (Don't care)
'Cause I love you, baby, that's no lie
I love you more than I did
When you were mine

When you were mine
You were kinda sorta my best friend
I was so blind
I let you fool around
I never cared
I never was the kind to make a fuss
When he was there
Sleeping in between the two of us

I know (I know)
That you're going with another guy
I don't care (Don't care)
'Cause I love you, baby, that's no lie
I love you more than I did
When you were mine

When you were mine
You were all I ever wanted to do
Now I spend my time
Following him whenever he's with you

I know (I know)
That you're going with another guy
I don't care (Don't care)
'Cause I love you, baby, that's no lie
I love you more than I did
When you were mine

I love you more, I love you more

I love you more than I did
When you were mine

I love you more, I love you more, I love you more

I love you more, I love you more
