You’re Gonna Be Mine

I say you love me, you say you don't
Well, one of us is lying
Although your will says that you won't
You can't fault me for trying
You poked your head outside the door
To ask me what I'm waiting for
And though I'm always turned down flat
The odds are pretty even that

You'll see that you're the only one for me
And you'll realize the way it has to be

You're gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine
Gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine

I sat down in the laundromat
And while my sheets were drying
I thought of all the guys you've had
And couldn't keep from crying
I begged you 'til my throat was sore
And like a thousand times before
I don't think you're believing me
I hope that you're receiving me

Oh, I promise you that I will find a way
And that you'll soon see the truth in what I say

You're gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine
Gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine
Gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine
Gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine

I take a cold shower twice an hour
But it doesn't make me stop
Oh, if I can't get my hooks in you
I think I'm gonna pop

I say you love me, you say you don't
Well, one of us is lying
Although your will says that you won't
You can't fault me for trying
You poked your head outside the door
To ask me what I'm waiting for
And though I'm always turned down flat
The odds are pretty even that

You'll see that you're the only one for me
And you'll realize the way it has to be

You're gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine
Gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine
Gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine
Gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine

I bought your favorite kind of soap
So I could symbolize my hope
I bought an extra set of towels
And now I'm counting down the hours
You're cold and antisocial, too
I'm hopelessly in love with you
I'm waiting so impatiently
For the day that you move in with me

You're gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine
Gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine
Gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine
Gonna be mine, gonna be mine, gonna be mine
