You Belong to Me
Embracing Love Across Continents: 'You Belong to Me' by Dean Martin
Lyrics
Watch the sunrise on a tropic isle
Observing the sunrise from a tropical island
See the pyramids along the Nile
Viewing the pyramids located along the Nile River
Just remember darlin', all the while
A reminder to the loved one that despite being apart, they are cherished
You belong to me
Reaffirmation of the emotional connection and claim of ownership
See the market place in old Algiers
Visiting the marketplace in old Algiers
Send me photographs and souvenirs
Request for mementos like photographs and souvenirs
Just remember when a dream appears
Highlighting the importance of remembering the dream of being together
You belong to me
Assertion of belongingness despite physical distance
I'll be so alone without you
Expressing the feeling of loneliness in the absence of the loved one
Maybe you'll be lonesome too and blue
Suggesting the possibility of the loved one feeling similar emotions of loneliness and sadness
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
Traveling across the ocean in an airplane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Viewing the jungle during rainfall
Just remember 'til you're home again
Emphasizing the continuity of belongingness until the loved one returns home
You belong to me
Restating the claim of ownership and emotional connection
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
Repetition of traveling across the ocean in an airplane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Reiteration of viewing the jungle during rainfall
Just remember 'til you're home again
Reaffirming the continuity of belongingness until the loved one's return
You belong to me
Final affirmation of the emotional bond and claim of belonging
