If You Were Mine by Billie Holiday Lyrics
If you were mine
I could be a ruler of kings
And if you were mine
I could do such wonderful things
I'd say to the stars
"Stop where you are
Light up my lover's way"
And every star above you would obey
Say, if you were mine
I would live for your love alone
To kneel at your shrine
I would give up all that I own
Yes, even my heart
Even my life
I'd trade it all for you
And I think I was lucky too
If you were mine
I could be a ruler of kings
And if you were mine
I could do such wonderful things
I'd say to the stars
"Stop where you are
Light up my lover's way"
And every star above you would obey
Say, if you were mine
I would live for your love alone
To kneel at your shrine
I would give up all that I own
Yes, even my heart
Even my life
I'd trade it all for you
And I think I was lucky too
If you were mine
