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

<instrumental interlude>

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
