You Belong To Me
Robert and Johnny Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Looking straight at the moon up above
Watching the bright stars that twinkle
Thinking of the one I love
I can see your bright eyes
As you told me goodbye
The moon shining on that, while oh so bright
And wish you were home
I'll wish you were with me tonight
An angel baby I had as a memory
Just as sweet as the dew from the rose
Each night, I kiss the tips of her fingers
How I love her, no one will know
Last night, as I passed by her cradle
She smiled as you taught her to do
With her two little arms, she caressed me
Her bright eyes remind me of you
I can see your bright eyes
As you told me goodbye
The moon is shining on that, while oh so bright
Tonight, I'm all alone
And I wish you were home
I'll wish you were with me tonight
In the song "Eternity With You" by Robert and Johnny, the singer paints a picture of himself sitting alone by the window at night, looking at the moon and the stars, and missing the one he loves. He remembers her bright eyes and the moment she said goodbye. He wishes she was with him because he feels lonely. The singer then reminisces about an angel baby that he remembers - as sweet as dew from a rose - and how he kisses her tiny fingertips every night. He remembers how the little one smiled at him and caressed him with her two little arms just as it was taught. Finally, the baby's bright eyes remind him of his love, and he yearns for her presence once again.
The song's lyrics evoke a sense of longing, loneliness, and nostalgia. The singer misses his loved one and wants to be with her again. The mention of an angel baby and the fond memories associated with it add a layer of poignancy to the song. The moon, stars, and twinkling lights create an ambiance of quiet contemplation and wistfulness.

It’s a shame this time is no
Longer with us. The most beautiful voices ., love songs
My heart is broken these
Songs should be played over
The radio for our young
People today. This is real
Love . Let our youth hear
The words there is power
In love for one another.
