“I’m Yours” lyrics
Jason Mraz Lyrics
“I’m Yours”
Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill, but you’re so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
Now I’m trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I’ll be giving it my bestest
And nothing’s gonna stop me but divine intervention
I reckon, it’s again my turn
To win some or learn some
But I won’t hesitate
No more, no more
It cannot wait
I’m yours
Well, open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you’re free
And look into your heart and you’ll find love, love, love, love
Listen to the music of the moment, people dance and sing, we’re just one big family
And it’s our God-forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved, loved
So I won’t hesitate
No more, no more
It cannot wait
I’m sure
There’s no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate
I’m yours
But don’t you want to come on and scooch on over closer, dear
And I will nibble your ear
I’ve been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed
I guess what I’ll be saying is there ain’t no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
It’s what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue
But I won’t hesitate
No more, no more
It cannot wait
I’m yours
Well, open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you’re free
Look into your heart and you’ll find that the sky is yours
So please don’t, please don’t, please don’t
There’s no need to complicate
‘Cause our time is short
This oh, this oh, this is our fate
I’m yours
Oh, I’m yours
Oh, I’m yours
Oh, oh
Baby, do believe I’m yours?
You best believe, you best believe, I’m yours

There was a demo version of this song included on a limited-release bonus EP “Extra Credit” (2005), which Jason Mraz used to promote his “Mr. A-Z” (2005) album.
Many covers of this track have been made and posted on YouTube. The singer told Billboard magazine, “I never instigated any of the covers. But I can see why people are drawn to the song. And because it is about generosity, I wanted to share it.”
This song was released as the album’s first single because of the fans’ response to it.
This song was being performed live for about five years before its release. Jason Mraz noted, “When I finally recorded it, my fans were relieved that we didn’t overproduce it. We kept the feel and arrangement true to how we play it live.”
album: “We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things” (2008)
