You Were Never Mine — Janiva Magness
Chords and lyrics for You Were Never Mine by Janiva Magness (key of F).
Verse 1
[F]I saw someone again today [C]who remembered me and you
[Bb]They asked all the same old questions, [F]I gave the [C]same excuse
[F]They said what a shame, what a [C]shame to lose a love so fine
[Gm]But I never [Dm]lost you, [Gm]I never [Dm]lost you, [Gm]I never [Dm]lost you,[Bb] you were [F]never
mine
I kept on believing what I wanted to believe
The unspoken promises that you could never keep
But it's a sin, oh it's a sin to tell yourself a lie
I never lost you, I never lost you, I never lost you, you were never mine
[C]Did you give me [F]all you gave [Bb]me[C][A]
[C]Just because I needed [F][Bb]you[G][A]
[G]But when I needed all your love completely
[Bb]Was it more than you could [C]do
Sometimes deep in the night when I hold you in my dreams
I get lost in your loving touch, baby, I can't believe how real it seems
And I know, yes I know I'll have you 'till the end of time
'Cause I never lost you, I never lost you, I never lost you 'cause you were
never mine
I never lost you, I never really lost you
How could I lose you, you were never mine
