"Tonight You Belong to Me" is an American popular song, written in 1926 by lyricist Billy Rose and composer Lee David.
Gene Austin recorded it and the song became a major hit.

Lemeul Eugene Lucas (June 24, 1900 – January 24, 1972), better known by his stage name Gene Austin, was an American singer and songwriter, one of the early "crooners". His recording of "My Blue Heaven" sold over 5 million copies and was for a while the largest selling record of all time. His 1920s compositions "When My Sugar Walks Down the Street" and "The Lonesome Road" became pop and jazz standards.
