Before I chose you, life was unkind Troubles arose and waited in line (for me) Now I'm alone, but I'm feeling fine 'Cause Heaven knows that I'll make you mine (you'll see) Just yesterday I saw the first sign Shone like a ray of perfect sunshine (on me) I only pray you won't be so blind Sooner or later, I'll make you mine (you'll see) I've heard it said that love is like wine So go ahead and take all the time (you need) My sights are set, I've made up my mind Alive or dead, girl, I'll make you mine (you'll see)
