Read Full Bio ↴Family And Friends is an American indie-rock band out of Athens, GA.
The band began as a lowly seedling of inspiration. “Good music, good people.” One became six, a collective of musicians by trade, lovers by spirit. Inspired by a life worth living, the Fam and Pals remained rooted with three ambitions in heart, mind, and soul: the people, the music, the memories. The reflection represented by blend of earnest folk rock and a communal spirit pouring a collective heart into something bigger than itself.

if you want
won't you take me in your arms
if you care, really care for me
why haven't you taken me in your arms.
You belong to me
Don't you know, how rare this is
Don't you know oh baby
Are you saying i made it all up
i'm loosing my self-esteem
am i ever going to see you again
i'm loosing my confidence
You're passing by (passing by)
leaving me behind (leaving me behind)
all my dreams now up the sky
why not me (why not me)
is it her cause (is it her cause)
should have told me long ago
You belong to me
Don't you know, how rare this is
You belong to me
Don't you know what it is
Don't you know that you're tearing my soul
how far do you want to go
but i'll get up and walk on and on
I'm a different woman now
You belong to me
Don't you know, how rare this is
You belong to me
Don't you know oh baby
Am i ever going to find you out there?
I'm loosing my confidence
The song "She Belongs To Me" by Family and Friends is a heart-wrenching love song that deals with the loneliness and lack of confidence that comes with unrequited love. The opening lines of the song are a plea to the person the singer is addressing, asking them to take the singer in their arms if they care for them. The singer wonders why their feelings are not reciprocated, leaving them unsure of their own self-worth.
Throughout the song, the singer's emotions range from sorrow to anger as they question the other person's intentions and wonder if they are being misled. The lyrics express the pain of being left behind, as the person the singer loves passes by, pursuing someone else.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "You belong to me" as a desperate plea for attention and a declaration of love. The singer is torn between the hope that their love will be returned, and the fear that they will be left broken-hearted.
Overall, "She Belongs To Me" is a powerful and emotional song that captures the intense feelings of love and loss.
