I Guess It Wasn't Mine

How can you blame me
 For the way I never felt before
 And all the mistakes that I made?
 It's just that I was so in love
 I couldn't keep you close enough
 I held too tight to the reins
 It can't keep a moment from passin' by
 Love's not a thing that you own
 Oh I, I guess it wasn't mine
 I didn't mean to lose the love
 It took so long to find
 I guess it wasn't mine
 I wore your heart upon my sleeve
 A prize for all the world to see
 A child's dream of soul possession
 Thought of ever letting to
 Was more than I could bear, you know
 I just thought of my own protection
 Love is a gift that you give away
 It's not a thing that you own
 Oh, I, I guess it wasn't mine
 I didn't mean to lose the love
 Took so long to find
 I guess it wasn't mine
 I could drive myself crazy
 Tear myself down
 But things will be different
 Next time
 Love is a gift that you give away
 It's not a thing that you own
 I, I guess it wasn't mine
 I didn't mean to lose the love
 It took so long to find
 I guess it wasn't mine
 I guess it wasn't mine
 I know I love to say it wasn't mine
 It took so long to find
 I had to walk away, had to walk away, yeah
 Oh, not again, it's wrong
 I guess it wasn't mine after all
