about

I wrote this for Mel on our 10th wedding anniversary. I've always referred to her as my princess and so the story just came together. It's really a follow on from the one I wrote and sang to her at our wedding. I've tried to keep it pretty raw and stripped back cause that's the way I play it to her.

lyrics

YOU'RE MINE

From the moment I saw you I knew
I was destined to be with you
Was just a matter of time

From the moment you kissed me I know
I could never let you go
So I told you you’d always be mine

In a wink and a smile my heart soared
You were the girl I’d been looking for

You were the princess, the one with the power
To capture my heart so defenseless I bow to
Your beauty and your love
Tightly I’ll hold you and never let go
When the world tries to tear down the castle you’ll know
That you’re safe here and you’re mine

Time passes so quickly and days
Turn into years and some say
That love fades away and then dies

Not us!
Just like my lungs take a breath
I will love you till my death
And you will be mine for all time

And morning by morning I’ll choose you
It’s your beautiful smile that I’ll wake to

You were the princess, the one with the power
To capture my heart so defenseless I bow to
Your beauty and your love
Tightly I’ll hold you and never let go
When the world tries to tear down the castle you’ll know
That you’re safe here and you’re mine

And day after day with so many to come
We will cry with the rain and we’ll laugh with the sun
And I’ll love you…you know I’ll love you

And when comes the time when the years have all gone
And the memories are many
And the lines of the song are now over
I will love you
I will love you.
