Maybe I seen one too many movies
Maybe my dream's too pie in the sky
Maybe I ignored the obvious signs
But you can't blame a girl for trying

Funny how life can turn on a dime
A shift can occur with no reason or rhyme
Like a wrench in the wheel of a paradigm
Like snow in the middle of summertime

[Chorus]
I don't understand, I admit it
You were only mine for a minute
Everything changed, but at least I can say
I was yours, you were mine for a minute

And though my heart was set on forever
I know you can't always get what you want
So I'm living with longing indefinitely
Happily haunted by memories

Seems my prayers were not meant to be answered
Seems the plans that we've made were not meant to be
But I can't complain for the truth is, you've seen
I don't regret time you spent with me
[Chorus]
I don't understand, I admit it
You were only mine for a minute
Everything changed, but at least I can say
I was yours, you were mine for a minute

[Piano Solo]

[Chorus]
I don't understand, I admit it
You were only mine for a minute
Everything changed, but at least I can say
I was yours, you were mine for a minute

Everything changed
I'm so glad I can say
I was yours
You were mine for a minute
