Dave Barnes, “Mine to Love”

Contemporary Christian singer/songwriter Dave Barnes, who earned a #13 hit with God Gave Me You in 2010, is back with a new single, Mine to Love, which is even catchier and more relevant than its predecessor. I really like the melodies of Mine to Love; Barnes’ voice, reminiscent of an edgier Stephen Curtis Chapman, is clear and passionate in his declaration of love. I really like Mine to Love over God Gave Me You which hopefully bodes well for his prospects. The highly anticipated Stories to Tell CD drops March 2012.

MINE TO LOVE Lyrics
Dave Barnes

You might wanna close your eyes
It will take some time adjustin
Welcome to your life
You’re everything you’ll someday be

There’s a weight off my shoulder
There’s laughter in the air
You are the answer to every midnight prayer

You’re mine to love
We have all been waitin on you
You’re mine to love
Come into this open arms
It’ll took some time to wait it out
But I see it now, your words I’ve been dreaming of
You’re mine to love
You’re mine to love

You might wanna take your time
Takin all this technicolor, oh yeah
We’re on your side
Let us be the one you need

There’s a life on my shoulder
Lift her in the air
You are the answer to every midnight prayer

You’re mine to love
We have all been waitin on you
You’re mine to love
Come into this open arms
It’ll took some time to wait it out
But I see it now, your words I’ve been dreaming of
You’re mine to love
You’re mine to love

Every time that my heart was broken
Every time I’ve lost my wings
I forget when I look into your face

You’re mine to love
We have all been waitin on you
You’re mine to love
Come into this open arms
‘Cause I’m right here
It’ll took some time to wait it out
But I see it now, your words I’ve been dreaming of
You’re mine to love
You’re mine to love

So you might wanna close your eyes
