Lyrics Kristin Chenoweth

Kristin Chenoweth

Mine To Love

You happened like a sudden storm that caught me my surprise

In an accidental devastating moment of my life

You upset me with your kindness

You upset me with your smile

You cracked my heart wide open and I felt alive for a little while

You were mine, mine to hold in the rain out in the cold

With a stolen cup of coffee at a place that no one knows

You were mine just enough that each breath I take keeps getting tough

And every kiss is running out of time

You were mine, but you were never mine to love

We kept each other's secrets

And we never made demands

It was so exciting never making any kind of plans

We tore up all the rule books and we cast them to the wind

Now I'm left just chasing pages trying find myself again

You were mine, mine to hold sharing tales we never told

On a long lost day last summer with the sand beneath our toes

You were mine, just enough that each breath I take keeps getting tough

And every kiss is running out of time

You were mine, but you were never mine to love

You were mine just for a minute like a roller-coaster ride

I was scared when I got in it then I laughed until I cried

Now I'm back at the beginning and I'm walking out the door

'Cause you know I just can't do this anymore

Oh you know I just can't do it anymore

You were mine, mine to hold now the leaves are turning gold

And the year we spent together burns forever in my soul

You were mine just enough that each breath I take keeps getting tough

And every kiss is running out of time wish me luck I'll be fine

You were mine, but you were never mine to love
