If You Were Mine

I'd take good care of you

And I would cherish you

If You Were Mine 

If You Were Mine

I'd give my share to you

Oh what I wouldn't do

If You Were Mine 

If You Were Mine

If You Were Mine

There'd be a change

I'd walk the line 

If You Were Mine

You'd wear a golden ring

It wouldn't cost a thing

If You Were Mine

But most of all

I'd be a friend to you

I wouldn't make you blue

If You Were Mine
