I'm Yours
Linda Davis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My hopes are up
My guard is down
I'm in a place I'd never dream
Mmm
I've heard it happens everyday
Well, it's my turn dare I say
Whoa, look at me
I've never been so taken in
This is a fight I cannot win
I'm yours
Take me as I am
And I never thought I'd get caught up
In a feeling
My heart can't ignore
This is what I've been waiting for
Baby, I'm yours

I laid my heart out on the line
Now I know it was worth the risk
Mmm
Cause when I see you smile
I just fall
I surrender all
And I just can't resist

I've never been so taken in
This is a fight I cannot win
I'm yours
Take me as I am
And I never thought I'd get caught up
In a feeling
My heart can't ignore
This is what I've been waiting for
Oh, baby, I'm yours

I had to let my heart go
Due to circumstances
Beyond my control

I've never been so taken in
This is a fight I cannot win
I'm yours
Take me as I am
And I never thought I'd get caught up
In a feeling
My heart can't ignore
This is what I've been waiting for
Whoa, baby, I'm yours

I've never been so taken in
This is a fight I cannot win
Oh, baby, I'm yours
This is what I've been waiting for
Whoa, baby, I'm yours

My hopes are up
My guard is down
I'm in a place I've never dreamed
I've heard it happens everyday
It's my turn, dare I say
Look at me
Chorus
Oh I've never been so taken in
This is a fight I cannot win
I'm yours
Take me as I am
And I never thought I'd get caught up
In a feeling my heart can't ignore
This is what I've been waiting for
Baby I'm yours
I laid my heart
Out on the line
Now I know it was worth the risk
When I see you smile I just fall
I surrender all
I can't resist




I had to let my heart go
Due to circumstances beyond my control

Beautiful lady - sounds a lot like Reba who took Linda under her wing and they did several duets together. I own two of the Linda Davis cds which I dug out the other day as I am back into 90's country these days - better than the current stuff . I did not realize that Hillary of Lady A was Linda's daughter - cool .

I got to see Linda Davis in concert about 2 years ago. She was so gracious, friendly, and put on an excellent show. What a beautiful lady, then and now.

Underrated, too sad. Beautiful music, and beautiful voice,

One of the nicest and approachable entertainers I have ever met. Very, very under rated in the country business.
