Are You Mine
Eternal Commitment: Love's Pledge in 'Are You Mine'
Lyrics
Are you mine all life through will you kiss me when I'm blue
Asking if the partner will be committed throughout their entire life and provide comfort during difficult times.
Will you whisper I love you and make all my dreams come true
Expressing the desire for verbal affirmations of love and the realization of dreams.
Will you share the good and bad bring me joy when I am sad
Seeking assurance that the partner will share both joyful and sorrowful moments.
Tell me darling are you mine and only mine
Posing a direct question about exclusivity and commitment.
Are you mine (yes I am) all the time (yes I am)
Receiving confirmation that the partner is claimed "all the time."
Mine alone (yes sirree) all my own (all your own)
Affirming sole possession and dedication to each other.
No one else will ever do I'll be yours and I'll be true
Declaring exclusivity and faithfulness to the partner.
Don't worry dear have no fear cause I'm yours
Reassuring the partner not to worry, as the speaker is committed.
Are you mine tell me dear will I always have you near
Asking for confirmation of continued proximity and presence.
Will the love light always shine in your heart just like in mine
Inquiring about the permanence of love in the partner's heart.
Will you give as well as take keep the vows that you will make
Expecting a commitment to give and take, and keep marital vows.
Tell me darling are you mine and only mine
Repeating the question about exclusivity and commitment.
Are you mine (yes I am) all the time (oh yes I am)
Reiterating the partner's affirmation of being exclusively theirs.
Mine alone (you're only one) all my own (absolutely)
Emphasizing sole ownership and dedication to each other.
No one else will ever do...
Reaffirming the exclusivity and faithfulness in the relationship.
Are you mine rich or poor tell me darling are you sure
Prompting the partner to confirm commitment regardless of financial status.
Will you whisper yes I do and forever love me true
Asking for a commitment to love forever and stay faithful.
Will you honor and obey will you promise not to stray
Requesting adherence to traditional wedding vows of honor, obedience, and fidelity.
Tell me darling are you mine and only mine
Repeating the question about exclusivity and commitment.
Are you mine (yes I am)...
Reaffirming the partner's claim of being exclusively theirs.
Don't worry dear have no fear cause I'm yours
Reassuring the partner not to worry, as the speaker is committed.
