Once You Were Mine

Paul McDonald Paul McDonald

I’m stranger than I used to be
Yeah, I lost my job and my wedding ring
I’ve still got the tattoo where it used to be
It reminds me of you constantly

I’ve been thinking a lot, I’ve been thinking about us
I’ve been thinking how hard it’s been giving you up
I’ve been sleeping with strangers and filling my cup
Yeah, but nothing I do is ever enough, no

Yeah, darling, I’m tired
Of living with your ghost
And walking on wires
And trying not to fall
Yeah, my heart is heavy, your voice so cold
And I don’t wanna hear it
Yeah, once you were mine
But you’re not anymore

And I’m stronger than I used to be
Yeah, at least that’s what I'm trying to believe
I’ll be done with this dying, I’ll get over this grief
I’ll get all myself back that you stole from me

Yeah, darling, I’m tired
Of living with your ghost
And walking on wires
And trying not to fall
Yeah, my heart is heavy, your voice so cold
And I don’t wanna hear it
Yeah, once you were mine
But you’re not anymore, yeah

And one of these days I’ll quit seeing your face
In all these empty picture frames
You’ll be out of my head, you’ll be out of my dreams
I’ll be young, I’ll be bold, I’ll be wild, I’ll be free
I’ll be young, I’ll be bold, I’ll be wild, I’ll be free, yeah

Darling, I’m tired of living with your ghost
And walking on wires and trying not to fall
Yeah, my heart is heavy, your voice so cold
And I don’t wanna hear it
Yeah, once you were mine
But you’re not anymore
Yeah, once you were mine
But you’re not anymore
Yeah, once you were mine
But you’re not
