Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, now the one I love belongs to somebody else
She means her tender songs for somebody else
And even when I have my arms around her
I know her thoughts are strong for somebody else
[Verse 2]
Yes, the hands I hold belong to somebody else
I'll bet they're not so cold to somebody else
It's tough to be alone on the shelf
Worse to fall in love by yourself
The one I love belongs to somebody else
What else?
[Verse 3]
Yes, the one I love belongs to somebody else
(Man, like the bear, you ain't nowhere, that's why)
She sings her songs to somebody else
(Ah, boo-hoo, hoo-hoo)
And even when I have my arms around her
(Well, Daddy, you know)
Her thoughts are for somebody else
[Verse 4]
And when I hold her hands (You know)
They belong to someone (Someone)
Somebody else (And you can bet)
They're not so cold to somebody else
(Well, it's tough to be alone on the shelf)
And it's worse to be in love by yourself
Like when the one you love belongs to somebody else
