Analysis of You’re mine



Why does a man want a woman?
Why do dreams become a reality?

Why sing instead of speak?
Why pray instead of preach?

Why does the moon still hang around?
Why does a hummingbird make a sound?

Why do the vines climb the trees?
Why does pepper make you sneeze?
Why reach for the stars when they’re all so very far?
Why look to the sky when you’ll never climb that high?

There is, there always will be, a reason.
