"Yours" Lyrics

Yeah, I been a singer
Yeah, I been a smoker
Yeah, I been the face in every bedroom on a poster
Yeah, I been a thinker
Yeah, I been a joker
Yeah, I done a lot of things just 'cause I wasn't supposed to

There's another side of me
No one ever gets to see it
I've been a lot of different things to different people

But my favorite thing to be is yours, yours, yours
My favorite thing to be is yours, yours, yours
Out of all the things I'm livin' for, for, for
My favorite thing to be is yours, yours, yours

Yeah, I been a leader
Yeah, I been a poser
Yeah, I been a kid who was afraid of getting older
Yeah, I been a stranger
Yeah, I been a son
Yeah, I been an album flop away from being done

There's another side of me
No one ever gets to see it
I've been a lot of different things to different people

But my favorite thing to be is yours, yours, yours
My favorite thing to be is yours, yours, yours
Out of all the things I'm livin' for, for, for
My favorite thing to be is yours, yours, yours

I could be a father
I could be a teacher
Talking to a kid who's got his hand around my finger
I could learn some patience
Wait for things to come
I could be at peace with all the wars I never won

There'll always be a side of me
And no one ever gets to see it
I'll be a lot of different things to different people

But my favorite thing to be is yours, yours, yours
My favorite thing to be is yours, yours, yours
Out of all the things I'm livin' for, for, for
My favorite thing to be is yours, yours, yours, yours
