Intro: F  C  Bb  F  

F                        C 
I saw someone again today who remembered me and you 
Bb                                    F   C 
They asked all the same old questions, I gave the same excuse 
F                                      C 
They said, "What a shame, what a shame, to lose a love so fine" 

Gm          Dm      Gm        Dm 
But I never lost you, I never lost you 
Gm      Dm     C Bb        F      
I never lost you, you were never mine 


F                  C 
I kept on believing what I wanted to believe 
Bb                   F            C 
The unspoken promises that you could never keep 
F                   C 
But it's a sin, oh, it's a sin to tell yourself a lie 

Gm          Dm      Gm        Dm 
But I never lost you, I never lost you 
Gm      Dm     C Bb        F      
I never lost you, you were never mine 


C               F                 Bb  A  C 
Did you give me all that you gave me  
C                        F    Bb  A  G   
just because I needed you 
G                                          F 
But when I needed, all your love completely  
Bb                         C 
was it more than you could do 


F                          C 
Sometimes deep in the night when I hold you in my dreams 
Bb                                   F          C 
I get lost in your loving touch baby, I can't believe how real it seems 
F                      C 
And I know, yes I know, I'll have you till the end of time 

Gm             Dm      Gm               Dm 
'Cause I never lost you, I never really lost you 
Gm      Dm     C Bb              F 
I never lost you 'cause you were never mine 

Gm      Dm       Gm              Dm 
I never lost you, I never really lost you 
Gm          Dm     C Bb        F 
How could I lose you, you were never mine
