Say you'll be mine

Say you'll be mine until the sun shines

Say you'll be mine

And bring me the dream of a lifetime

 

I just can't hide the truth no more

I've got to get my feet back down on the floor

I love you so

I need you so

I just don't think I can let you go

 

Say you'll be mine

Say you'll be mine until the sun shines

Say you'll be mine

And bring me the dream of a lifetime

 

Well, it's you that keeps me feeling this way

I don't think I can take it even one more day

It don't seem right

That I should be alone tonight

 

Say you'll be mine

Say you'll be mine until the sun shines

Say you'll be mine

And bring me the dream of a lifetime

 

I just can't hide the truth no more

I've got to get my feet back down on the floor

I love you so

I need you so

I just don't think I can let you go

 

Say you'll be mine

Say you'll be mine until the sun shines

Say you'll be mine

And bring me the dream of a lifetime.
