YOURS EVER

I finally won
she was the one
that I loved so long
and now she's gone
We're over and done
but she's still the one
though I need her so
I always tried to run
away from all those years,and I
hide myself behind my tears, and I
never seem to get her off my mind
I just wanna cry out loud

She walked out that door
like she'd done before
and I felt I couldn't take once more
I guess I was sore
A kind of a bore
At the time I thought
I knew her to the core
but now that she's away, there's so
many things I want to say, and I'm
on my knees, to God I pray, and I
only wanna cry out loud

Yours ever
darlin', I hate to live alone
Yours ever
darlin', you're always welcome home
I feel inclined to drink my wine
and blow her off my mind
Yours ever
baby, let me make you mine

Now she's all alone
she laughs on her own
and she's dating all the friends I've known
What's now on my phone
A dialling tone
and she keeps away to
close her danger zone
and now that she's away, there's so
many things I'd like to say, and I'm
on my knees, to God I pray, and I
only wanna cry out loud

Yours ever
darlin', I hate to live alone
Yours ever
darlin', you're always welcome home
I feel inclined to drink my wine
and blow her off my mind
Yours ever
baby, let me make you mine
