Baby I'm Yours Baby I'm Yours And I'll be yours until the stars fall from the sky Yours until the rivers all run dry... In other words until I die... Baby I'm Yours, Baby I'm Yours And I'll be yours until the sun no longer shines, Yours until the poets run out of rhymes In other words until the end of time.. I'm gonna stay right here by your side, Do my best to keep you satisfied, Nothing in the world could drive me away, Every day you'll hear me say... Baby I'm yours Baby I'm Yours And I'll be yours until two and two is Three Yours until the mountain crumbles to the sea, In other words until eternity.. Baby I'm yours... Till the stars fall from the sky Baby I'm yours Till the rivers all run dry Baby I'm yours...

Brief biography courtesy of Wikipedia
Barbara Lewis (born 9 February 1943, Salem, Michigan, near Ann Arbor) is an American singer and songwriter whose smooth style influenced rhythm and blues. Barbara Lewis was writing and recording by her teens with record producer Ollie McLaughlin (a black DJ at Ann Arbor radio station WHRV, now WAAM, who is also credited with discovering Del Shannon). Lewis' first single release in 1962, the uptempo "My Heart Went Do Dat Da," did not chart nationally, but was a local hit in the Detroit, Michigan area. She wrote all of the songs on her debut LP, including the hit "Hello Stranger" which featured extensive use of the Hammond organ. Though her follow-ups did not have the same success, her song "Someday We're Gonna Love Again" was covered by The Searchers for a British Invasion hit. In the 1960s, Lewis recorded in New York, with producers Bert Berns and Jerry Wexler, leading to commercially-successful hits like "Baby I'm Yours", which was written by Van McCoy, and "Make Me Your Baby". At the end of the decade, she released a grittier-sounding album on Stax Records, and after its lack of commercial success, she began to withdraw from the music industry. However, over the next decade, a number of other artists had success with Lewis' songs, most notably Yvonne Elliman, who made the U.S. Top 20 (and #1 on the Adult Contemporary chart) and the UK Singles Chart Top 30 with her version of "Hello Stranger" in 1977. "Baby I'm Yours" also charted in versions by country singer Jody Miller and Debby Boone (the B-side of her single "God Knows"). In Canada, Suzanne Stevens had a hit in 1975 with a disco version of "Make Me Your Baby." Cover versions of Barbara Lewis' tracks continue into the new millennium with the Arctic Monkeys, including a version of "Baby I'm Yours" as a B-side to their 2006 single, "Leave Before the Lights Come On." In 1995, Lewis' "Baby I'm Yours" was featured on the soundtrack for the film The Bridges of Madison County. She received the Pioneer Award from the Rhythm and Blues Foundation in 1999. The backup group on many songs from the album Hello Stranger are The Dells.
