What's Mine is Mine

Nothing ever stays the same
Life goes on and feelings change
Through the grey and shifting tides
One truth remains: what's mine is mine

People that are so important
Friends and lovers near or absent
Distances of space and time
Near or far, what's mine is mine

Hold tight to all the things you cherish
Pictures fade and objects vanish
In the heart and in the mind
Both joy and pain, what's mine is mine
