See the pyramids 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 Algiers, Send me photographs and souvenirs,

Just remember when a dream appears, You Belong To Me.

I'll be so alone without you,

Mabe 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.
