When You Were Mine

from The County Line by Tom Savage Trio

lyrics

when you were mine
we were so good together
any storm we could weather
turn water into wine

when you were mine
i let go of those bad dreams
gave up on the get-rich-quick schemes
i was feeling just fine

when you were mine
there were nothing but good vibes
i could ignore the usual jibes
things were falling in line

when you were mine
no more soul-searching
my heart was lurching
must've been some kind of sign

CHORUS
but sometimes things just aren't meant to be
and we can try with all our might
but everyday becomes an endless stream
of broken promises and empty fights
and when we finally reach the breaking point
hit rock bottom , see the light
we might find it's all right... to let go

when you were mine
i must confess that i was a mess
far from your picture of togetherness
sweet perfume and turpentine

when you were mine
the road was paved with shards of glass
no way i could ever get passed
things were far from divine

CHORUS

BREAK


now that your gone
i try to think of the good times
no love lost on the petty crimes
but i guess it's been so long

now that your gone
i've gotta pull up my boot straps
let myself of this trap
admit that i'd done wrong
think about movin on

CHORUS

about

Tom Savage Kingston, Ontario

Tom Savage is what one might refer to as a triple-threat. One part truth-telling troubadour, one part death-defying guitar slinger, and one part Country Blues howler. Each facet of his formidable on-stage persona carefully crafted over a 20+ year devotion to the composition and performance of song. Tom is a true believer. A disciple of melody and harmony and tempo and timbre. ... more
