Because you're mine 

The breeze that hurries by 

Becomes a melody and why? 

Because you're mine, because you're mine 

I only know for as long as I may live 

I'll only live for the kiss that you alone may give me 

And when we kiss 

That isn't thunder, dear 

It's only my poor heart you hear and its applause 

Because you're mine 

I only know for as long as I may live 

I'll only live for the kiss that you alone may give me

That isn't thunder, dear
