Dionne Warwick - Yours lyrics

They told me love don't last forever
Now I understand
To think that only yesterday
You held me in your hands
And I became a woman
And you became the world to me

I was lost, no dream too high
No star top far apart
Your carpet ride holding me

You led me to believe that I was yours, yours
I swallowed every lie
And you will cry when I'm away, on your own
Like me when I was yours

I could live my life without you
That is not enough
I can't lie awake believin' you
Don't want my love alone in my desire
And still the fire burns, my friend

I was there, I loved you well
Though we are far apart, I love you still

I relive the very moment when
You called me yours, yours
Don't let me die inside
Save me from the memories
The hours that I cried
Say to me that I am yours, yours
Mine eternally
And you will cry when I'm away
On your own, like me, when I was yours

Oh, yours, yours, don't let me die inside
Save me from the memories
The hours that I cried
Say to me that I am yours, yours for eternity
And you will cry when I'm away
The hours that I cry
Say to me that I am yours, yours
Don't let me die inside
Save me from the memories
The hours that I cried
Baby, won't you say to me I'm yours, yours
