Lyrics

?I Need You to be Mine?

Words and Music by Laurie Whitaker © 2007


Like the blossom needs the rain to grow
Like snow needs the sun to make rivers flow verse
Like the stars need the darkness to shine
That?s how I need you to be mine

Like a sail needs the wind to fly Verse
Like a story needs sadness to make you cry
Like romance needs candles and wine
That?s how I need you to be mine

When I was all alone, a heart without a home Chorus
I looked at you and saw a whole new life before me
The other half of me, and I thank God I found you
I need you to be mine

Like the poet needs the words to say
Like the child needs the teacher to show the way Verse
Like my hand needs yours to entwine
That?s how I need you to be mine

When I was all alone, a heart without a home
I looked at you and saw whole new life before me Chorus
The other half of me, you were meant for me
I need you to be mine

I need you to be mine, not just today but for all time Bridge
And without you I can?t be
All that I was meant to be

Like the blossom needs the rain to grow
Like snow needs the sun to make rivers grow
Like the stars need the darkness to shine
That?s how I need you to be mine

Now I am not alone, my heart has found it?s home Chorus
I look at you and see a whole new life before me
The other half of me, and I thank God I found you
And I need you to be mine
