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 its applause
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 its applause
Because you're mine
