I'm unhappy, so unhappy
For what I can see
The one I love
Don't care for me
And I'll be happy, oh so happy
For it was made that it was too late
When I happened to find her

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.

Oh, the hands I hold belong to somebody else
I bet they're not so cold to somebody else
It's tough to be alone on a shelf
Which worse to fall in love by yourself
The one I love belongs to somebody else.

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 hold belong to somebody else
I bet they're not so cold to somebody else
When I make love, she's more like a pal
She calls me John, and my name is Al
The one I love belongs to somebody else.
