Baby I'm Yours
And I'll be yours until the stars fall from the sky
Yours until the rivers all run dry
In other words until I die
Baby I'm Yours,
Baby I'm Yours
And I'll be yours until the sun no longer shines,
Yours until the poets run out of rhymes
In other words until the end of time
I'm gonna stay right here by your side,
Do my best to keep you satisfied,
Nothing in the world could drive me away,
Every day you'll hear me say
Baby I'm yours
Baby I'm Yours
And I'll be yours until two and two is Three
Yours until the mountain crumbles to the sea,
In other words until eternity
Baby I'm yours
Till the stars fall from the sky
Baby I'm yours
Till the rivers all run dry
Baby I'm yours
Baby I'm Yours
