I Thought They Would be Mine © 2005 Minyard
How many hearts
Will go unbroken in this world
How many loves
Will last throughout the years
How many lips
Will know the linger of a kiss
How many eyes
Will never shed sad tears
Chorus
I thought they would be mine
These wonders of the world
I never thought that time
Would take you from me, girl
I can’t believe they’re gone
These wonders that I’ve known
I thought they would be mine
How many arms
Will gently hold a lover close
How many hands
Will touch a lover’s face
How many voices
Will softly make a lover’s toast
How many souls
Will warm to love’s embrace
Chorus
I thought they would be mine
These wonders of the world
I never thought that time
Would take you from me girl
I can’t believe they’re gone
These wonders that I’ve known
I thought they would be mine
Bridge
The bed that we once slept in,
Now is as empty as my heart
All the moments and the memories
In a thousand tear-stained parts
Chorus (modified)
They once were yours and mine
These wonders of the world
I never thought that time
Would take you from me, girl
I can’t believe you’re gone
That I’m here all alone
I thought you would be mine
