[Verse 1: Dan Reynolds]
I know I've given up
A hundred times before
But I know a miracle
Is not something to ignore
[Pre-Chorus: Dan Reynolds]
You take me for a fool
You take me for a fool
[Chorus: Dan Reynolds]
I never knew anybody ‘til I knew you
I never knew anybody ‘til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours
I never knew anybody ‘til I knew you
I never knew anybody ‘til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours
[Verse 2: Dan Reynolds]
Are you the only one
Lost in the millions?
Or are you my grain of sand
That's blowing in the wind?
[Chorus: Dan Reynolds]
I never knew anybody ‘til I knew you
I never knew anybody ‘til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours
I never knew anybody ‘til I knew you
I never knew anybody ‘til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours
[Bridge: Dan Reynolds]
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born, born
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born, born
I was born to be yours
(I was born)
Oh-woah
[Outro: Dan Reynolds]
Oh-woah (hey)
Born to be yours
I was born, born, born, born
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born (hey)
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born, born (I was born)
I was born to be yours
I was born

A day after releasing the song, Kygo DJ’d the song live at an event at the Encore Beach Club in Las Vegas, NV and posted it on his Instagram Story. Nearly two weeks later, Imagine Dragons played the song live during their acoustic set in Sioux Falls, South Dakota:
While the track doesn’t appear on the standard edition of Origins, “Born To Be Yours” appears as the sixteenth and final track on every International Deluxe copy of the album.
