When You Were Mine Lyrics - Everything's Coming Up Roses - Night Terrors Of 1927

Maybe you got soft 

Flew out the door on the breeze 

Maybe you just got lost 

On the way back home. 

On the way back home to me. 

Maybe we're just pretending 

And maybe I don't mind 

So, now that it's ending 

I don't wanna know 

Was it all a waste of time? 

It's the end of the world 

It's the last taste of wine 

When you were, 

When you were, 

When you were mine, 

You were lost. 

I was blind and we swore it was time 

When you were, 

When you were, 

When you were 

My waste of time. 

Waste of time 

So, I wrote one more story 

I just don't know how it ends 

About all the boys you're seeing 

The ones that you 

That you call your friends. 

This nightmare keeps repeating 

We'll never get to the end 

Of this fire we're feeding 

The hottest love has the coldest end. 

From the start of it all to the end of the line 

When you were, 

When you were, 

When you were mine, 

You were lost. 

I was blind and we swore it was time 

When you were 

When you were 

When you were 

My waste of time. 

Waste of time 

Waste of time, 

Waste of time 

Waste of time. 

From the start of it all to the end of the line 

When you were, 

When you were 

When you were mine, 

You were lost. 

I was blind and we swore it was time 

When you were, 

When you were, 

When you were 

My waste of time. 

Waste of time, 

Waste of time, 

Waste of time, 

Waste of time.
