You Belong to Me
Jo Stafford Lyrics
See the pyramids along the Nile
Watch the sun rise on a tropic isle
Just remember, darling, all the while
You belong to me
See the marketplace in old Algiers
Send me photographs and souvenirs
Just remember when a dream appears
You belong to me
I'll be so alone without you
Maybe you'll be lonesome too, and blue
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember till you're home again
You belong to me
I'll be so alone without you
Maybe you'll be lonesome too, and blue
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
Watch the jungle when it's wet with rain
But remember darling, till you're home again
You belong to me

But just remember, darling, all the while
You belong to me

Maybe you'll be lonesome too and blue
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
But remember, darling, till you're home again
That you belong to me

Just remember, darling, all the while
You belong to me
See the marketplace in old Algiers

Fly the ocean in a silver plane
Watch the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember till you're home again
You belong to me

I'm turning 81 soon, thank christ neither of us have passed quite yet. I'm so fortunate to of not gone through dementia and I hope it is so for my wife as well. I'm not the nicest person and change doesn't come easy, some of these young kids expect us to be perfect after loosing most of early known family and knowing we have finally achieved acceptance after the good attractive days with normality in less worry of the global world and tragedys is a sentive from hell.
