You Belong to Me
Jim Reeves · Legend Lives On [2005]
See the piramids along the Nile
Watch the sunrise on a tropic isle
Just remember, darling, all the while
You belong to me.
See the market place in old Algirs
Send me photographs and souvenirs
Just remember when a dream appears
You belong to me.
I'll be so alone with 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 till 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 till you're home again
You belong to me...
