Until She's Mine

from Prisoners of the Heart by Mark Lucas

about

or Lotte Lyell's Blues- a song about a long dead Australian silent movie star- notably Raymond Longford's 1910 production of "Dad 'n' Dave, On Our Selection"

lyrics

I live in a room above a store downtown

And I’m in love with a girl I’ve seen around

I watch her every night between the hours of 6 & 9

And I won’t be myself until she’s mine

She lives inside a dream and it’s her world
Somewhere in between a woman and a girl
Like butterfly’s new wings she spreads her smile
And I won’t be myself until she’s mine


But she don’t even know I breathe
As she makes her magic on the screen, I sigh
Ah, I won’t be myself until she’s mine

Solo/ Rpt bridge

She’s a real time woman but she’ll never grow old
She wears her heart on her sleeve but never her soul
She don’t have time for small talk but I don’t care about time
And I won’t be myself until she’s mine
