The Church - When You Were Mine lyrics
[The Church - When You Were Mine lyrics]
On a day like this, a hundred lifetimes ago
You on a shore, across the point
I looked through my hands and
You drew me a line when you were mine
On a world like this
A hundred turns left to go
Deep in a room, which I've never seen
Outside it's so cold but I'm waiting for time
When you were mine
Plenty of islands between now and then
Rocks break the boats of the painted face men
And they drown, and they're born
And they live once again
And this all happens when you were mine
In a storm like this
A hundred kisses of snow
You with another so easily sleep
What's real and what's dreamt
Become close and entwine when you were mine
You on a shore, across the point
I looked through my hands and
You drew me a line when you were mine
On a world like this
A hundred turns left to go
Deep in a room, which I've never seen
Outside it's so cold but I'm waiting for time
When you were mine
Plenty of islands between now and then
Rocks break the boats of the painted face men
And they drown, and they're born
And they live once again
And this all happens when you were mine
In a storm like this
A hundred kisses of snow
You with another so easily sleep
What's real and what's dreamt
Become close and entwine when you were mine
