Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Graham Russell)

Sometimes when I look at you,
I wonder why you're here wth me
I'm not the perfect lover and
There 's other things I'd like to be

you never ask for my applause
I want you to know

I'm yours, truly yours
Because, because, because
I'm yours, truly yours, truly yours

I'll never leave you all alone
Too far away to touc your skin
I don't know where the story goes
Or even if it did begin

I go to the ball
You sweep the floors in every way

I'm yours, truly yours
Because, because, because
I'm yours, truly yours
Because, because, because
I'm yours, truly yours, truly yours

So sofyly you tell me
In words that will haunt me
As long as the light from the stars
Fills your eyes....oo..ooh....

You never ask for my applause
I want you to know

I'm yours, truly yours
Because, because, because
I'm yours, truly yours
Because, because, because
I'm yours, truly yours




Because, because, because
I'm yours, truly yours, truly yours

So softly you tell me
You whisper to me with a gentleness that humbles me.


In words that will haunt me
Your words are so poignant, they will forever remain etched in my memory.


As long as the light from the stars
Through every moment of infinity,


Fills your eyes....oo..ooh....
Your radiant eyes will be illuminated by the celestial cosmos.
