Lyrics
“When You Were Mine” Music and lyrics written by Emma White Acoustic guitar and vocals : Emma White Verse 1: I'm lying awake, it's 2 AM Why do I always have to miss you Cuz everything that you do is beautiful Lightning strikes through the darkness It strikes right through my heart But don't worry I'll be okay I'm only falling apart Chorus: A country song comes on the radio It takes me back cuz it's one we both know And that old dirt we used to drive down Is where I found myself Take me back to the time When you were mine Verse 2: Standin in the rain I watched as everything changed Let me out of this mess I'm livin in And let me into your arms again Chorus Bridge: I don't know what you see in that girl But what we had together was the best thing in the world and I don't regret all the times that we've had But I'd do anything to have them back A country song comes on the radio It takes me back, I sing along
