It was the saddest thing, I remember
Sometime in August in the course of the night
She had blue eyes that raise December she was mine

A fairytale just like an old time movie where colors gone
A wishin' well just like an old time groove from a honeycomb
And as she smiled sideways before me
Something inside me said control myself
She had a style that damned adored me she was mine
She was mine

Baby don't worry I mean you no harm
But I've been observing your grace and your charm
I know it's eleven but please remain calm
If your in a hurry I won't keep you long

But I like the way that you been holding yourself
And I have to say that I admire as well
Born and ranged on a desert plain first to sprang whats your name
Pleasure to meet you and let me be blunt
Your a heavenly creature and that's what I want
Modest child in a kingdom wild precious Perl in a wicked world
And I noticed that the light has just changed
And you probably got to handle yo things
But I'm hoping that tomorrow will bring
Cause my number got to promise yo rang

Blame it on rhythm you can blame it on rhyme
Throw in your cymbal and get yo meetin' with time
It was kinda crazy put the moon in my mind
As I started to say when she's walkin' away that I knew that today of all days she was mine

She was mine
She was mine
She was mine
