[Verse 1]

It's a good thing tears never show in the pouring rain

As if a good thing ever could make up for all the pain

There'll be no last chance to promise to never mess it up again

Just the sweet pain of watching your back as you walk

As I'm watching you walk away

[Pre-Chorus]

And now you're gone, there's like an echo in my head

And I remember every word you said

[Verse 2]

It's a cruel thing you'll never know all the ways I tried

It's a hard thing faking a smile when I feel

Like I'm falling apart inside (When I'm with you)

And now you're gone, there's like an echo in my head

And I remember every word you said

[Chorus]

But you never were and you never will be mine

No, you never were and you never will be mine

[Verse 3]

For the first time, there is no mercy in your eyes

And the cold wind's hitting my face and you're gone

And you're walking away (Away, away, when I'm with you)

And I am helpless sometimes, wishing's just no good

'Cause you don't see me like I wish you would

[Chorus]

'Cause you never were and you never will be mine

No, you never were and you never will be mine

There's a moment to seize every time that we meet

But you always keep passing me by

No, you never were and you never will be mine

[Verse 4]

I saw you at the station (When I'm with you)

You had your arm around what's-her-name

She had on that scarf I gave you (When I'm with you)

And you got down to tie her laces

('Cause you never were and you never will be mine)

You looked happy and that's great

(No, you never were and you never will be mine)

I just miss you, that's all

[Chorus]

'Cause you never were and you never will be mine (When I'm with you)

No, you never were and you never will be mine

Oh, there's a moment to seize every time that we meet (Hey, yeah)

But you always keep passing me by

No, you never were and you never will be mine

'Cause you never were and you never will be mine

(You never were, and you never will) (When I'm with you)

You never were and you never will be mine (When I'm with you)

There's a moment to seize every-time that we meet

But you always keep passing me by

No, you never were and you never will be mine
