[English]

I've begun to realize

That whenever I am with you

You deliver me from the pain in my life

Easy now to recognize

All the misery I have been through

It was beating me to submission

'Til the day you arrived

Certainly I felt alive

Strength I had lost was revived

An ending in sight and we both know why

'Cause' you're mine

I knew I could be whole if you were mine

I'll vanquish any foe because you're mine

Been betrayed too many times

Didn't think I would ever recover

They depart me for the rest of my life

Then you opened up my eyes

And you helped me rediscover

You're the one who resurrected

A man who had died

Your power, it gave me new life

You made me reborn and revived

Rebuilt from inside and we both know why

Cause' you're mine

I knew I could be whole if you were mine

I'll vanquish any foe because you're mine

I never thought I would ever escape

At times, I wanted to die

Feared that it all was just a little too late

Thought that I wouldn't survive

I let you in and let go of the hate

My heart recovered, now I

Owe you a debt that I could never repay

I still believe 'cause you're mine

I'm burning inside and we both know why

'Cause you're mine

I knew I could be whole if you were mine

I'll vanquish any foe because you're mine

I can regain control because you're mine

I can take over the world because you're mine
