Please don’t be offended if I get lost in your eyes
I’ve been rendered motionless
'Cause I fear this might be the last time
And I can’t waste this opportunity, my beauty
I am yours now
I am yours now

I want to paint your nails red
And lay my head on your chest
So I can match your failing breath
Until I feel nothing no more, but don’t worry
I am yours now
I am yours now

I’ll sing tender words in your sleep
If it helps to bring you peace
For you mean so much more to me
Than I’ve led you to believe
I am yours now
I am yours now

Somehow you still smell of cigarettes
You’ve not had one for days
But the scent is so entrenched that I can’t forget
All the nights you’d drag me outside for a crafty smoke
Scared that I’d find somewhere else to go
So I guess this is the right time to say
I wouldn’t have spent my time with anyone else but you

I am yours now
I am yours
I am yours
I am yours now
