Mine Is Yours

I agree with what jbee said. Building on it a bit, I think this is a relationship moving past those 'dream' stages of the beginning where you're making out in the car all summer and dealing and helping each other with real problems.

"Realistic love runs out of room." There comes a point where realism has to replace idealism in a relationship. He can promise the sun and moon to her, but he doesn't own them, they come out when they want to. Idealism can get in the way of realistic love so that it runs out of room.

The last verse is piercing honesty. This song is a very mature definition of love.

Just made some corrections. (:

Whoa x4

You were changing colors like the leaves in fall I was saving up for the long winter Summers we'd hide out in my car When it broke down we didn't care We'd figure out another way to get me there

Mine is yours What is mine is yours x3

A realistic love runs out of room I try to talk big but my mouth don't move Cause I don't own the sun I don't own the moon They only come out when they want to they don't care whether I promise you They only come out when they want to they don't care whether I promise

What is mine is yours x4

You wanna fight about it x3 Come on come on I made you cry about it x3 Come on Come on There was no other way to let you in here to stay we had to give it away Come on come on And when we come up for air x2 And when we come up now we know

All my stones become your pearls All of my trials are your treasures All my debt you inherit All of my clumsy lines will shine

Cause mine is yours What is mine is yours x5

this song seems to be about falling in love and how when you do both people's belongings (and baggage) become each other's. pretty much the whole thing is just providing examples of that.

I think the line is "Summers we'd hide out in my car" as opposed to "Summer were high out in my car"

what is this dude talking about in the music? i like the sound of it, but i don't understand what it means..
