You Belong To Me
Amie Comeaux Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Watch the sunrise 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
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 'til 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
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember 'til you're home again
You belong to me
The lyrics of Amie Comeaux's song 'You Belong to Me' are about distance and separation in a relationship. The song speaks to a lover who is far away and traveling, urging them to remember that they belong to their partner despite the distance between them. The first verse describes the exotic places the lover is visiting - the pyramids along the Nile, a tropical island - but emphasizes that they still belong to their partner. The second verse mentions old Algiers and asks for souvenirs and photographs from the trip. The refrain repeats the central message of the song: "You belong to me."
The song's third verse has the singer acknowledging the loneliness they will feel without their partner, suggesting that their partner may feel the same way. The final lines of the song once again emphasize the distance between them, with references to flying over oceans and seeing the jungle in the rain. Throughout the song, the singer maintains a sense of ownership over their partner while expressing love and longing for them.
