You Were Never Mine

Opening my fingers letting go
Loosening hands
Hourglass of sand as it flows
Still
you were never mine
though our lives entwine
You belong to my heart but
You never were mine

We all know we’re only passing through
Here in this life
Felt a headlong fall into you
Still
You were never mine
though our lives entwine
A small burst of beautiful
breaking through time

Every ending brings beginning but what has my life become?
Loving you, only the best thing I’ve ever done
So I try to hold on, the years move on
and now what was is gone,
Finding peace to somehow,
Release and allow

Following a trail of breadcrumbs
in this life
When I look to find my way I find
You were never mine
though you are so much mine
You belong to my heart but
You never were mine
You belong to my heart but
you never were mine
