I Belong by Herb Alpert and The TJB


Others may find this song forgettable and boring. However, I find "I Belong" by Herb Alpert and The TJB charming because of its simplicity and lightheartedness.

"I Belong" by Herb Alpert and The TJB is the only track from its album in which you will hear Herb singing. Lani Hall appeared also as his backup singer here. The song is composed by Goran Fristorp and Hal David. At the moment, this is the only album that I know where the song is found:

I Belong by Herb Alpert & The TJB

Why should you be disappointed in me?
If I disagree with your point of view
I don't just exist in your eyes
I also exist in my eyes
And just like a tree it belongs I belong
You never would question a tree
And just like a star it belongs I belong
So why in the world question me?

Whatever I do I'd be faithful to you
Gotta be true to myself as well
I don't just exist in your life
I also exist in my life
And just like the sun it belongs I belong
You never would question a sun
Don't tell me I'm right and don't tell me I'm wrong
Just tell me you care and you'll always be there
To accept me and give me your love

Pollyanna, Pollyanna
Pollyanna nana nananana
Pollyanna Pollyanna nana
Polly Pollyanna
Pollyanna
Pollyanna nana nanana...

Polly Polly Pollyanna
Pollyanna
Pollyanna nana nananana
Pollyanna Pollyanna nana
Polly Pollyanna
Pollyanna
Pollyanna nana nanana...

Polly Polly Pollyanna
Pollyanna
Pollyanna nana nananana
Pollyanna Pollyanna nana
Polly Pollyanna
Pollyanna
Pollyanna nana nana...

I also exist in my life
And just like a tree it belongs I belong
You never would question a tree
And just like a star it belongs I belong
So why in the world question me?
