While You Are Mine Lyrics - Flirting With Twilight - Kurt Elling

In Time we met - one winter night - and the moon shone with a mystic light. 

It seemed the world was holding breath - on her way to death 

So your adagio - played sweet and low - could grow into a symphony. 

Every note played to me sounded clear and fine - in splendid time. 

In Time you slept - and every breath - every stillness and each sigh was mine. 

I heard the sound of our two hearts - dancing in the dark 

Lighter than air - the perfect pair - but it was there I knew that 

If the world must pass - so, too, love's gentle flame. 

So I'll sing your name - in splendid time 

While you are mine.
