The clocks pass the minutes
and hours mark the miles
That closes the distance between us
bringing you nearer my heart
The beats echo the question
when that time arrives
Will you be mine?

Each evening as the sun sets
and brightness turns to blue
I long to feel you next to me
holding you tight in my arms
Lost in my dreams of rapture
still morning asks
Will you be mine?

When the dawn breaks on your face
I watch you as you sleep
Hoping to rest in this heaven
awakened each sweet morning
Loved as never before
never again wondering
Will you be mine?
