I'm Yours



"I'm Yours" is the first single released by Jason Mraz from his third studio album We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things.

The song was originally released on a limited edition EP called Extra Credit as demo in 2005 to promote his second studio album Mr. A-Z.

The single was made available on iTunes, Zune Marketplace and Amazon.com on February 12, 2008.

The video debuted in March, 2008. The video starts with Jason Mraz sitting on plane and showing different types of beach scenery. He is then seen sitting in hotel room getting ready to go somewhere and then he is seen riding in a taxi. As the video continues, he is also seen hitching a ride in the back of an open top truck. This continues on until he arrives at park with people skateboarding. While watching the people skateboarding he is also seen talking to people who are also at the park who eventually talk him into going swimming at a waterfall nearby. From this point on the camera follows him and his new friends through the forest until they arrive at the waterfall and decide to go swimming. The camera then switches to him surfing in the ocean, him on a bus, and him singing on the beach. Toward the end of the video he is seen riding in a boat and performing the song with his band in front of a small audience while the camera continues to switch back and forth between all of the previous shots. The video ends with him sitting on the beach while the waves crash against the shore and then the video fades to black.

Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you’re so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
and now I’m trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I’ll be giving it my bestest
Nothing’s going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it’s again my turn to win some or learn some

I won’t hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I’m yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you’re free
Look into your heart and you’ll find love love love
Listen to the music of the moment maybe sing with me
A lá peaceful melody
It’s your God-forsaken right to be loved love loved love loved

So I won’t hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I’m sure
There’s no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I’m yours

I’ve been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
My breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what i’ma saying is there ain’t no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It’s what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue

I won’t hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I’m sure
No need to complicate
Our time is short
It can not wait, I’m yours

Well no no, well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you’re free
Look into your heart and you’ll find love love love love
Listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
A lá one big family (2nd time: A lá happy family; 3rd time: A lá peaceful melody)
It’s your God-forsaken right to be loved love love love

I won’t hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I’m sure
There’s no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I’m yours

No please, don’t complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I’m yours

No please, don’t hesitate
no more, no more
It cannot wait
The sky is your’s!
