You Belong To Me
Original TV Soundtrack Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Watch the sunrise on a tropic isle
Just remember that 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 lonesome wothout 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
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
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 "You Belong to Me" are a declaration of love, of someone who is feeling alone and trying to keep the love strong regardless of the distance. The song describes exotic and romantic locations such as the pyramids along the Nile, the market place in old Algiers, and the jungle when it's wet with rain. The singer asks to send photographs and souvenirs from these places, as a way of keeping a connection through memories. The chorus repeats the line "You belong to me" three times, reaffirming the strong bond they share and how distance won't change it.
