You Belong To Me
Michael Buble Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
See the sunrise on a tropic isle
Just remember darlin' all the while
You belong to me
See the market place 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
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
In Michael Buble's signature crooning style, "You Belong to Me" is a song about love and longing. The lyrics describe the yearning and separation between two people who are apart but still devoted to each other. The song appeals to our emotions through its romantic imagery of pyramids along the Nile, sunrises on a tropic isle, marketplaces in Old Algiers, and jungles wet with rain. These events and places appear vividly in the imaginations of the listener and underscore the love the singer feels for his object of affection. The lyrics are especially poignant when he notes that when one of them is away, the other feels lonely and blue. This underscores the deep connection between the two and hints at a desire to be together no matter what.
The song was written in 1952 by Pee Wee King, Redd Stewart, and Chilton Price. It was first recorded by Jo Stafford and became a hit in the same year. Since its first recording, the song has been covered by several artists, including Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, and Michael Buble. Interestingly, Elvis Presley's version of the song became more popular than the original and is often considered to be the definitive version. Additionally, the song was featured in the movies "The Jerk" (1979) and "Sleepless in Seattle" (1993). The beautiful and romantic lyrics of the song have made it a classic and immortalized it in the hearts of music lovers around the world.

Bye bye bye my favorite angel song my angel of music my heart buble is yours
@EPA18
This was Buble at his best. A modest accompaniment, and singing classics.
@TrenchMan93
Buble is an amazing singer who knows a classic when he rehashes or makes his own. He's a diamond in the rough and to quote Marilyn Monroe "diamonds are a girls best friend."
