Yours and Yours Alone

Intro)

(Slow guitar lick, heavy on the bass notes)

Verse 1

The sun’s gonna rise, baby, and the moon’s gonna set

But I’m the one promise that you ain’t never gotta fret

I see that look in your eyes, that little shadow of a doubt

But I’m here to tell you, sugar, what my heart is all about

I ain’t looking left, and I surely ain't looking right

I’m staying planted by your side every single night.

Chorus

‘Cause I’m yours and yours alone, honey, can’t you see?

There ain't a soul in this world gonna take you ‘way from me

And there’s nobody walking, no matter how they try

Gonna ever come between us or make you say goodbye

I’m your one-man steady, true as the day is long

In this world of moving pieces, baby, we’re the one thing strong.

Verse 2

I know you don’t like sharing, and baby, that’s just fine

I want the whole world to know that your hand is held in mine

You don’t have to worry ‘bout no wandering eye

I’m a one-woman man until the day that I die

I understand the way you feel, I hear what you don’t say

I’m locked in your orbit, and I’m here to stay.

Bridge

(Guitar solo: Slow, melodic, and warm)

Some folks like to gamble, some folks like to roam

But I found my treasure, and I’ve found my home

You’re the lock and the key, the rhythm and the rhyme

I’m giving you my heart, and every second of my time.

Verse 3

So lay your head down easy, let those worries drift away

I’m the rock you can lean on at the end of every day

You won't lose me to the shadows, won't lose me to the crowd

I’ll say it in a whisper, or I’ll scream it out loud:

I belong to you, baby, from my head down to my shoes

And loving you, darling, means I’ll never sing the blues.

Outro

Yeah, I’m yours...

(Yours alone)

Nobody else’s...

(Yours alone)

Go to sleep easy, baby...

I ain’t going nowhere.
