She Used To Be Mine Lyrics

She Used To Be Mine lyrics

I understand there's nothing i can do
I can't be what she needs
As long as
she needs you

If you're the one she'll turn to from now on
There are
things that you should know
About her when i'm gone
She's not as brave as
she might seem
and when shes had a scary dream
If you dont hold her

She wont sleep all night

She's not as strong as she should be
She
cries at movies on TV
And counts on you to see that things go
right

But shes a chance to make your dreams come true
To have someone
who thinks theres nothing you cant do
A chance to live each day
And care
the way you always knew you could
Take care of her for me
She used to be
mine

Shes not her best on rainy days
she'll test your love a hundred
ways
She plays with your emotions like a song
She chases dreams that cant
come true
and always tries too hard for you
and never knows just how to
say shes wrong

But shes a chance to make your life complete
A chance
to take those lonely days 
and make them sweet
a chance to feel so
good
that everyone wish they could be you

take care of her for
me
she used to be mine

she'll never leave you anytime alone
she
needs more time and tenderness 
that anyone you've known

But shes a
chance you'll never have again
a chance that always seems to go to other
men
a chance i cant forget
a chance that i somehow let slip
away

take care of her for me
she used to be mine
