Lyrics: What are you going to tell your mothers? I don't want to hear stories about your lovers anymore Or about hidden boyfriends you had before Those who wait for the doctor to tell you that you're better now How silly that you continue Numb and say That he has no control I don't want to be the responsible one Because I don't want to love anyone And I just don't want anyone Saying "You belong to me, you belong to me" Your silent mouth, your absent gaze Always going with the flow It's complicated to swallow what you see It's easy to guide you, but the fear of moving on is too much Be careful It's already broken The uniform didn't protect you I don't want to be the responsible one Because I don't want to love anyone And I just don't want anyone Saying "You belong to me, you belong to me," yeah Oh, oh, oh, you belong to me, yeah Eh, eh, eh, you belong to me (You belong to me) You belong to me (Yeah, you belong to me) You belong to me (You belong to me) You belong to me You belong to me No, no You belong to me (You belong to me) You belong to me (You belong to me) You belong to me (You belong to me) You, you belong to me (Ye-eh) You, you belong to me (Ye-eh-eh-eh) You belong to me (Ye-eh, ye-eh, ye-eh-eh-eh) The song "Tú Eres Para Mí" (You Belong To Me) by Elvis Costello & The Attractions & Luis Fonsi talks about a complicated relationship. The narrator expresses their frustration and reluctance to take responsibility for someone else's emotions. They are tired of hearing stories about the other person's past lovers and are skeptical about their claims of not being controlled by their current partner. The narrator doesn't want to love anyone and doesn't want to be told that they belong to someone else. They highlight the other person's silence and lack of presence, always going along with what others say, which makes it difficult for them to trust and move forward in the relationship. The song implies that the relationship has already been broken, and the narrator warns the other person to be cautious because their previous attempts to protect themselves failed. Overall, the song portrays a sense of detachment and a desire for independence in the context of a strained romantic relationship.
