Mine
You are a voice in my ear
And a song in my head
Laughter at midnight
And whispers into early morning
The feel of guitar strings
Under my fingers
And a slow heat that turns
My face to ripe apple red
You are a smile in the darkness
And a feeling of love
And knowing all is right
With the world
You are the unfamilar sounds
That taste strange and delicious
On my tongue
And the familar words
That become new and lovely
Even if I've heard you say them
A thousand times
You are everything I want
And all that I need
You are mine
I'm yours
