Sunshine came softly through my, a window today
Could’ve tripped out easy a but I’ve a changed my ways
It’ll take time, I know it but in a while
You’re gonna be mine, I know it, we’ll do it in style
‘Cause I made my mind up, you’re going to be mine
I’ll tell you right now
Any trick in the book and now, baby, all that I can find
Superman or Green Lantern ain’t got a nothin’ on me
I can make like a turtle and dive for your pearls in the sea, yeah
A you can just sit there, a thinking on your velvet throne
‘Bout all the rainbows, a you can, a have for your own
‘Cause I made my mind up, you’re going to be mine
I’ll tell you right now
Any trick in the book and now, baby, all that I can find
Everybody’s hustlin’ just to have a little scene
When I say we’ll be cool, I think that you know what I mean
We stood on a beach at sunset, do you remember when?
I know a beach where, baby, a it never ends
When you’ve made your mind up forever to be mine
I’ll pick up your hand and slowly, blow your little mind
‘Cause I made my mind up you’re going to be mine
I’ll tell you right now
Any trick in the book and now, baby, all that I can find
I’ll pick up your hand and slowly, blow your little mind
When you’ve made your mind up forever to be mine

‘Bout all the rainbows, a you can, a have for your own
When you’ve made your mind up forever to be mine
I’ll pick up your hand and slowly,
a blow your little mind
When you’ve made your mind up forever to be mine
I’ll pick up your hand,
I’ll pick up your hand and slowly,
a blow your little mind
