I Belong to You


You Belong to Me
Jason Wade

See the pyramids around the Nile
Watch the sun rise
From the 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

And I'll be so alone without you
Maybe you'll be lonesome too

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

Oh I'll be so alone without you
Maybe you'll be lonesome too

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 made Bee a promise today.

I promised to be strong.

It's not easy, given the state of mind I'm in, but I will try.

I'm sure I'll still break down and cry tomorrow. But this time, I'll try to remember that even when life throws us curve balls, I'm still lucky because I'm loved by you, and we're still a team.

If we don't catch the ball first time round, maybe it's the best any of us could do to try to take a swing at it.

And if that failed too, we'll watch for the next pitch. Together.

I'm not as strong as that sounded. Tears are welling up in my eyes as I'm typing this, and my hands are shaking. I'm just so alone without you.

But I will try. For you.

I'm not a strong person, but I will try.

Till I get to come home to you again. Wherever we decide that might be.

I love you, sweetie. And I'm so sorry for how difficult and hurtful I've been.

Happy birthday, baby!
