Mine All Mine
Embracing Love on My Own Terms: Mine All Mine by Emma Wallace
Lyrics
I’m not one to indulge in romantic-type thoughts
I generally don't entertain romantic thoughts.
Though I’ve read enough to know others think that I ought
Despite knowing others expect me to have such thoughts.
Happiness in love is all just a matter of chance
Believes that finding happiness in love is a matter of chance.
So I don’t see the point of overthinking romance
Doesn't see the value in overthinking romance.
I just want something respectable
Desires something respectable in a relationship.
Something quite dependable
Seeks dependability in a partner.
And something mine all mine
Wants something exclusively hers.
Love makes a fool of us
Love can make people act foolishly.
I don’t really see the fuss
Doesn't understand the hype or fuss about love.
I just want something that’s mine
Simply desires something that belongs to her.
I’m not one to daydream about a lover’s touch
Doesn't daydream about physical intimacy.
In fact, I’d say, I don’t really daydream that much
Claims not to daydream much in general.
And you may pity me my mind for sentiment’s sake
Rejects sentimentality in favor of staying grounded.
But I prefer to spend my days wide awake
Prefers to be awake and present in reality.
I just want something attainable
Seeks something achievable in a relationship.
Something quite comfortable
Values comfort in a romantic connection.
And something mine all mine
Desires something exclusively hers.
Love makes a fool of us
Love is capable of making people foolish.
I don’t really see the fuss
Doesn't comprehend the excitement or commotion around love.
I just want something that’s mine
Simply wants something that is her own.
I’ve heard it said I should try to find my heart’s missing piece
Heard advice about finding the missing piece of her heart.
But, see, I’ve never felt my heart less than complete
Feels complete and has never sensed a missing heart piece.
Happiness in love is all just a matter of chance
Reiterates that happiness in love is a matter of chance.
So I don’t see the point of overthinking romance
Repeats the indifference to overthinking romance.
I just want something respectable
Desires respectability in a romantic involvement.
Something quite dependable
Looks for dependability in a partner.
And something mine all mine
Wants something exclusively hers.
Love makes a fool of us
Love can lead people to act foolishly.
I don’t really see the fuss
Still doesn't understand the fuss about love.
I just want something that’s mine
Just wants something that is her own.
I just want something attainable
Reiterates the desire for something achievable.
Something quite comfortable
Values comfort in a romantic connection.
And something mine all mine
Wants something exclusively hers.
Love makes a fool of us
Love has the potential to make people act foolishly.
I don’t really see the fuss
Continues to not understand the excitement about love.
I just want something that’s mine
Expresses the simple desire for something that is her own.
