DIONNE WARWICK

- Yours Lyrics

They told me love don’t last forever
Now I understand
To think that only yesterday
You held me in your hands
And I became a woman
And you became the world to me

I was lost, no dream to hide
No star to fall apart
Your heart it rang oh in me
You led me to believe that I was

Yours, yours, I swallowed every lie
And you will cry when I’m away
On your own like me
When I was yours

I could live my life without you
But that is not enough
I can’t lie awake believing
You don’t want my love
Alone in my desire
And still the fire burns, my friend

I was there, I loved you well
Though we are far apart I love you still
I believed the very moment when you call me
Yours, yours, don’t let me die inside
Save me from the memories
The hours that I cried
Say to me that I am

Yours, yours, love eternally
And you will cry when I’m away
On your own like me
When I was yours

Oh, yours, yours, don’t let me die inside
Save me from the memories
The hours that I cried
Say to me that I am

Yours, yours, love eternally
And you will cry when I’m away
The hours that I cried
Say to me that I am

Yours, yours, don’t let me die inside
Save me from the memories
The hours that I cried
Baby won’t you say to me
I’m yours, I’m yours
