"You Mean The World To Me" is the fifth single from Toni Braxton's critically and commercially successful debut album. The track was released during the spring of 1994 and was an instant radio smash peaking at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #3 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles charts. The song describes Toni realizing that her lover means the world to her, but he better shape up or ship out.

The music video showed a sequence of Toni playing piano in a mansion intercut with scenes of her with her male counterpart. The video stayed in heavy rotation during the spring and summer of 1994.
