This is a very interesting question. "Yours" is the special possessive case of the pronoun "you", even though the normal possessive case is "your" When the possessive case is separated by an active verb, or is otherwise separated by several words, from the word that it modifies or of which it indicates ownership, the special possessive case forms "mine", "yours", "ours", and "theirs" should be used instead of the respective normal possessive case forms, "my", "your", "our", and "their". Also note that, because of its function in a sentence, some grammarians prefer to call a possessive pronoun a "functional adjective".
