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

<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 it’s applause
Because you’re mine
