(Cy Coben)

Count the raindrops in a rainstorm
Count the leaves upon a tree
Count the stars up in the heavens
Count the fish down in the sea.

Add them all together
And here's what you would find
They'd be equal to the kisses
You would get if you were mine.

If you were mine, mine, mine
If you were only mine
I would love you more than
You've ever been loved before.

Count the times the sun has risen
Since the day the world began
Find a beach beside the ocean
Count the little grains of sand.

Add them both together
And here's what you would find
They'd be equal to the love you's, you would hear
If you were only mine.

--- Instrumental ---

Take a child's love for its mother
It's a love that never ends
Take a brothers love for brother
Or the love of mans best friend.

Put them all together
And here's what you would find
They'd be equal to the love I'd have
For you if you were only mine.

If you were mine, mine, mine
If you were only mine
I would love you more than
You've ever been loved before.

Take the happiness of someone
Who has won the jackpot prize
Take the happiness of chilren
When their birthday gifts arrive.

Add that happiness together
And here's what you would find
It's just equal to the love I'd know
If you were only mine...
