I Just Need You To Be Mine

Staring up into the sky
I let my mind drift into reverie
And I get lost in thoughts of us together
And all we could be
If we would just take a chance at love
Without being scared
Of taking a risk on things
We may not be prepared
For

There is no rational explanation
For how much I want you
Since your smile leaves me on the floor
Without a clue
About how you ever managed
To escape from the paradise above
To find your way here
Where you hold all my love

So allow me hold you ever so close to me
Showing you the tenderness you want to see
Thus let the tears of joy come
Because I will be the one

CHORUS:
I’ll move any obstacle in your way
Protect you with my dying breath
I just need you to be mine
You can take everything I have on this earth
My life, my land, my liberty mean nothing
I just need you to be mine

I face the problem
Of trying to follow my heart
When what I want and what I require Seem to be so far apart
But you go beyond all things
Like an angel so divine
Flying right into my heart,
Transcending all space and time

Life is an endless road
That we all must endure
But having to travel it without you
Is something that I am sure
I could never accomplish
In a million years
Because not having you with me
Is one of my greatest fears

So allow me hold you ever so close to me
Showing you the tenderness you want to see
Thus let the tears of joy come
Because I will be the one

CHORUS:
I’ll move any obstacle in your way
Protect you with my dying breath
I just need you to be mine
You can take everything I have on this earth
My life, my land, my liberty mean nothing
I just need you to be mine

If I could just take look around me
And find a way
To make sure that you will be in my arms
Every single day
Knowing that just a look from you
Will set my mind on fire
I lay back into ecstasy
And let your touch take me higher

Trapped in a tranquil state
Within your grasp
I raise my eyes to the stars
And am forced to ask
The Lord to never call me home
From where I lay
‘Cause this is the only place
That my soul wants to stay

CHORUS:
I’ll move any obstacle in your way
Protect you with my dying breath
I just need you to be mine
You can take everything I have on this earth
My life, my land, my liberty mean nothing
I just need you to be mine

We’ll make heaven wait
