When I Could Still Call You Mine - Clerel

My only friend has disappeared into the night

Without even an explanation as to why

And it feels like a cloud of smoke has been pulled over my eyes

Well, it’s almost spring, and you can tell that very soon

The air will ring of pretty birds singing in tune

But the song playing in my heart is a lonely lullaby

And I’d like to forget her but

She was

My lover

She was my muse

My savior

And you know that I don’t

I don’t know for sure

Who I’ll be

Without her

I can’t believe that she really would up and leave

Now I’m all alone, this old house ain’t no home

What times we had, my darling

When I could still call you mine

Our honey days were meant to last until forever

I’d found a way to read your mind like a letter

How I wish the hands on the clock would return to a time

When I knew you better

And I’m trying to forget her but

She was

My lover

She was my muse

She was my savior

You know, I don’t

I don’t know for sure

Just who I’ll be

Without her

I can’t believe that she really would up and leave me

Now I’m all alone, this old house ain’t no home

What times we had, my darling

When I could still call you mine

(Mine, mine, mine, mine)

What times we had, my darling

When I could still call you mine
