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!
