Was It Ever Really Mine | Lyrics

Here are the lyrics to "Was It Ever Really Mine" by Jon Troast.

Was It Ever Really Mine, Jon Troast

I brought a dollar to the store today wanting to buy something new
I put the dollar in my front pocket and brought it back home to you

Refrain: cause I don’t wanna buy what I don’t need
And I don’t wanna own what I can’t keep
And if I’m gonna have to leave it all behind was it ever really mine?

I made a dollar at my job today I show up every week
I guess I really didn’t make it they gave it to me

Refrain: cause I don’t wanna buy what I don’t need
And I don’t wanna own what I can’t keep
And if I’m gonna have to leave it all behind was it ever really mine?

Bridge: And I’ve got mansions waiting in the sky
Where the rivers run but never run dry
There are highways of gold room for this soul
Well I don’t think Jesus would lie

I put a dollar in the mail today I hope it gets there on time
They look so hungry on my TV I hope they’ll be alright, I hope they’ll be alright

Slower: cause the store’s full of things that I don’t need
And the world’s full of mouths that I can’t feed

Up tempo: and if I’m gonna have to leave it all behind was it ever really mine

Refrain: cause I don’t wanna buy what I don’t need
And I don’t wanna own what I can’t keep
And if I’m gonna have to leave it all behind was it ever really mine?
