Because You're Mine

                                  Because you're mine the brightest star I see looks down

My love, and envies me because you're mine

Because you're mine because you're mine

The breeze that hurries by becomes a melody

And why, because you're mine, because you're mine

I only know for as long as I may live

I'll only live for the kiss that you alone may give me

And when we kiss that isn't thunder dear

It's only my poor heart you hear, and it's applause

Because you're mine! because you're mine!

 

Because you're mine the brightest star I see looks down

My love, and envies me because you're mine

Because you're mine because you're mine

The breeze that hurries by becomes a melody

And why, because you're mine, because you're mine

I only know for as long as I may live

I'll only live for the kiss that you alone may give me

And when we kiss that isn't thunder dear

It's only my poor heart you hear, and it's applause
