Take my heart
It used to be so supple and sweet
And now it's withered on the vine
There's before and then there's after
You were mine
Take my faith so strong and full of fire
Now it's bruised, broken down and blind
There's before and then there's after
You were mine you were mine
Sun comes up, sun goes down
World keeps rollin' around and around
The hands on the clock going
Tick-tock-tick-tock
Ain't the way I measure time
There's just before and then there's after
You were mine you were mine
Take my hands, they used to hold you so tight
Now they reach
But they never touch you in the night
There's before and then there's after
You were mine you were mine, mine, mine
Sun comes up, sun goes down
World keeps rollin' around and around
The hands on the clock going
Tick-tock-tick-tock
That ain't the way that I measure time
There's just before and then there's after
There's before and then there's after
There's before
There's before and then there's after
You were mine
You were mine, you were mine, you were mine
Oh, yeah yeah, oh, yeah yeah oh-ho-ho
You were mine, you were mine, you were mine
Yeah
