[Verse 1]
Hey!
I have never been the pretty one
Or the funny one, or the witty one
I stayed on the side
Watched my sister shine
I took it on stride
'Til that night

We were visiting the rebels, handsome devils
There were revels ev’ry night
And my sister would dance with the soldiers
While I
Looked on with pride

You walked in to the room
And I knew
I would never be the same
All of the girls made a beeline to you
I grabbed my sister, and whispered

Oh no!
Hah!

[Chorus]
This one's mine
Hey, maybe I'm a little crazy
But baby
I saw you and said
"This one’s mine!"
That's usually not who I am
Hot damn!
[Verse 2]
You were capable of anything
You would take a thing
You would make it sing
I marvelled at your mind

Even my father said
"This one burns bright
Hold him tight"

Hah!

I was ready for a wedding ring
Or anything you were peddling
And then, one night
You were leaving, you'd gotten your orders
Off to fight
And I cried
But you told me

"I don't have a dollar to my name
No applause, no acclaim
But if I come back alive
There is nothing I won't provide."

I said "I just wanna wake up
With you by my side"
And you kissed me and whispered
The words I'd been saying inside
[Chorus]
"You're mine"
Hey, we were married that night
I screamed up to the sky
"This one's mine!"
And you better take care of my baby

[Bridge]
He is gonna change the world
Set us free
Stay alive
And come home to me

One day, they’ll tell stories of his deeds
And they’ll ask
"What was he really like?"
And I'll say "He was mine"

No matter what comes down the line
This one’s mine

[Outro]
Hey!
My, oh my!
