The One I Love (Belongs to Somebody Else)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"The One I Love (Belongs to Somebody Else)" is a popular song.

The music was written by Isham Jones, the lyrics by Gus Kahn. The song was published in 1924. It was first introduced by Al Jolson. The song was performed in the 1951 film I'll See You in My Dreams, starring Doris Day and Danny Thomas. The film was based loosely upon the lives of Gus Kahn and his wife Grace LeBoy Kahn.


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 The hands I held belong to somebody else I'll bet they're not so cold to somebody else It's tough to be alone on the shelf It's worse to fall in love by yourself The one I love belongs to somebody else The one I love belongs to somebody else
