You Belong With Me

You’re on the phone with your girlfriend ‒ she’s upset She’s going off about something that you said ’cause she doesn’t get your humor like I do.
I’m in my room ‒ it’s a typical Tuesday night.  
I’m listening to the kind of music she doesn’t like.  
She’ll never know your story like I do.

But she wears short skirts  
I wear t-shirts  
She’s cheer captain  
And I’m on the bleachers  
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find  
That what you’re looking for has been here the whole time.

If you could see
That I’m the one  
Who understands you  
Been here all along  
So why can’t you see you belong with me,  
You belong with me?

Walking the streets  
With you and your worn out jeans  
I can’t help thinking  
This is how it ought to be.  
Laughing on a park bench  
Thinking to myself  
“Hey, isn’t this easy?”

And you’ve got a smile  
That could light up this whole town.
I haven’t seen it in awhile
Since she brought you down.  
You say you’re fine - I know you better than that.  
Hey, what you doing With a girl like that?

She wears high heels,
I wear sneakers.  
She’s cheer captain,
And I’m on the bleachers.  
Dreaming about the day 
when you wake up and find that 
what you’re looking for has been 
here the whole time.

If you could see  
That I’m the one  
Who understands you
Been here all along  
So why can’t you see you belong with me?  
Standing by you Waiting at your backdoor.
All this time
How could you not know, baby  
You belong with me,  
You belong with me?

(Instrumental)

Oh, I remember you were driving to my house  
In the middle of the night.  
I’m the one who makes you laugh  
When you know you’re about to cry.  
I know your favorite songs,  
And you tell me about your dreams.  
Think I know where you belong,  
Think I know it’s with me.

Can’t you see  
That I’m the one  
Who understands you?  
Been here all along  
So why can’t you see  
You belong with me?  
Standing by you  
Waiting at your backdoor.  

All this time  
How could you not know, baby,  
You belong with me,  
You belong with me?
You belong with me.
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me?  
You belong with me.
