Lyrics for I'm Yours as interpreted by sunBurnt

I'm Yours Lyrics

Well you dawned on 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 and now I'm tryin' to get back
Before the cool done run out I'll be givin' 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

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 love, love, love
Listen to the music of the moment, maybe sing with me
All a peaceful melody
It's your God forsaken right to be love, love, love, loved, love, 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

(Doo da doo doo doo doo d'n' dooo, da doo...)

I been spendin' way too long checkin' my tongue in the mirror
And bendin' over backwards just to try to see it clearer
My breath fogged up the glass
So I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what I'm a-sayin' is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue

I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm sure

(Here the duet starts)
There's no need to complicate (Well open up your mind and see like me)
Our time is short (Open up your plans and damn you're free)
It cannot wait (Look into your heart and you'll find love)
I'm yours (Love, love, love)
And no, I won't hesitate (Listen to the music of the moment, come and dance with me)
No more, no more (All our one big family)
It cannot wait (It's your God forsaken right to be love)
I'm sure (Love, love, loved)
No need to complicate (Open up your mind and see like me)
Our time is short (Open up your plans, and damn, you're free)
This is our fate (Look into your heart and you'll find love)
I'm yours (Love, love, love)
No, please don't complicate (Listen to the music of the moment, come and dance with me)
Our time is short (All our happy family)
This is our fate (It's our God forsaken right to be love)
I'm yours (Love, love, loved)
No, please don't hesitate (Listen to the music of the moment, come and dance with me)
No more, no more (All our peaceful melodies)
It cannot wait (It's your God forsaken right to be love)
The sky is yours (Love, love, loved)

So it pretty much is a love song.
In the first part he is basically talking about how he has been letting all of these things get in the way of him being happy.
He met a girl and he really tried to play it cool but he fell in love. So then he says that its time for him to let go and just see what happens.

He will either fall in love and it will be a really good expierence or he will learn from it.And nothing is going to stop him from doing it except divine intervention, like basically the hand of god (before the cool done run out I'll be givin it my best test
and nothin's gonna stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some)

here..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 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 godforsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

he is hoping everyone will come along with him and love or learn. He is telling everyone to let go with him

and finally here..

I've been spendin' way too long checkin' my tongue in the mirror
and bendin' 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'd be sayin' 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

its bascially him saying again how he has just let things get in the way of him being happy. He's been spendin' way too long checkin' his tongue in the mirror, basically hes been spending way to much time worriyin about what other people think, HIS BREATH FOGGED UP THE GLASS SO HE DREW A NEW FACE AND LAUGHED, meaning he finally realized how stupid he was being. he now is going to just get rid of all the stupid stuff and just be happy.

I think what he means about is that he's tired of doing it everyone else's way. So he tries to be more care-free and layed back.

I think he explains it in the next bit, rid yourself of vanity, and just go with the seasons. He was looking at himself in the mirror making sure he looked healthy and groomed and while doing so he had an epiphany and realised there's more to life than just worrying about what other people think of you, and just went with the flow of things and playfully fogged up the glass and drew a new face and laughed...

Yes I agree ,, the bending over backwards we normally relate to "going out of our way to do something" so for this reason I think he's saying that he steamed up the glass and instead of getting annoyed that he cant be vain he just lets the mood roll and draw a funny face and have a giggle about it :D

i think when he says bending over backwards is just describing him tilting his head back to see all of his tongue..which defeats the purpose b/c the more u tilt ur head back your eyes won't beable to see..so face close to the glass examining tongue he is tilting his head back to see down his throat

BurningBridges57:

"And bendn' over backwards just to try to see it clearer" is saying that he's got his tongue in his ass basically, which is why he has to bend over to look at it in the mirror. He's saying not to be so focused on appearance, which is what he meant by vanity, and to just go with the flow sort of.

As for my opinion of this song, I think it's honestly my favorite song ever made. I heard this on the Wordplay - EP album and immediately fell in love with it. I played it for my friends and they got hooked right away too. It's just so relaxing, so true, so touching, so everything. It's just an amazing song.

it's a beautiful song about being head over heels over someone, and how you have to let go and just let it roll and see what happens.

i LOVE the "tongue" verse.

Well, as agreed with much said above, this song is fantastic. But, rather than an ass, I'd say that the tonge is really just a visual of what he tries to say later. "i guess what i'm a sayin'is there ain't no better reason to rid yourself of vanity" He looks in a mirror, fogs is up, and he no longer can see is own face. It becomes new. (that, or it could be that little happy face that everyone draws on fogged up glass) and he laughs at what he see's.
Now, to go a little far with it, it could be that he was obsessed with seeing something about himself, His vanities, and then, when he fogged it up, he finally realised how stupid he was being for making such an effort on looks.

I love this song as many of you here do! I head this song months ago and thought about looking for the lyrics here. This song is definitely cheerful. The guitar is Hawaiian-esque and goes well on a playlist with Jack Johnson's Banana Pancakes.

"the tongue in the mirror" part is about him obsessively picking at all his flaws but he cant seem to get rid of them so he decided to laugh about it and get over it.

This song is so intentional. To me, the message is as clear as day. Stop caring so much. He's been spending too long making sure he looks perfect, to please everyone else. And there is still something wrong, so he does whatever he can to try and see whats wrong with him. And then his reflection gets blurry, and he forgets where he began. So he starts over again, and is finally able to enjoy who he truly is. So just stop working on your appearance so much and go with the flow, because the only opinion that matters in your life should be your own, and you can never truly change who you are. "Our name is our virtue".

this is like one of my favorite songs.
i think for the tounge in the mirrior part hes saying that you shouldnt care about what anyone else thinks or be worrid about what people think you look like. Just be yourself ''our name is our virtue'' so be true to yourself and stuff.
