Welcome Home

My lovely daughter is home safe and sound from an amazing school trip to Egypt.

See the pyramids along the Nile
Watch the sunrise on a tropic isle
Just remember darlin' 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
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 'til you're home again
You belong to me

("You Belong To Me", written by Pee Wee King, Chilton Price and Redd Stewart, recorded by Patsy Cline in 1962)
