Lyrics

You Will Be Mine
It was late in the evening
You sat with your friends
I watched you take sips of your wine
Sadly I hoped that the night wouldn?t end
It?s five in the morning
I can?t get to sleep
?Cause I can?t get you out of my mind
I roll myself over and cover my head
I just can?t forget you
So pretty, so kind
If I could just sleep
I would dream you were mine
Chorus Someday I?ll find a way to be
Everything you?re searching for
Til? then I?ll try to sleep again
And dream of the day when you say
You will be mine.
Days have gone by and
My life?s been a wreck
I wish I could see you once more
I?ll still be trying to find you
When I?m old
Lift I just can?t forget you
So pretty, so kind
If I could just sleep
I would dream you were mine
Chorus2 Someday I?ll find a way to be
Everything you?re searching for
Til? then I?ll try to sleep again
And dream of the day when you say
When I find you
I?ll do all that?s needed to
Show you that my love is strong
?Til then I?ll try to sleep again
And dream of the day when you say
You will be mine.
