Because You're Mine

Because You're Mine - Carmen McRae

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

Because you're mine
