You Belong With Me

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she flushes

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 so typical Tuesday night

I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like

'Cause she'll never know your story like I do

Well, she wears dress coats, I wear t-shirts She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers

Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find out what you're looking for

Has been here the whole time, if you can see But I'm the one who understands you

And you're all alone, so why can't you see?

You belong with me, eee, you belong with me Walk in the streets with you, your worn out jeans

I kept thinking this is how it ought to be Laughing in the park bench, thinking to myself

"Hey, isn't this easy?" You've got a smile that could light up this whole town

I haven't seen it in a while 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 chair captain and I'm all the bleachers

Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find out

What you're looking for has been here the whole time

If you can see that I'm the one who understands you

I've been here all along, so why can't you see?

You belong with me

Standing by and waiting at your back

All this time, how could you not know?

Baby, you belong with me

You belong with me

Oh, I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night

I'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're 'bout to cry

I know your favorite songs, so you tell me about your dreams

Think I know where you belong, think I know what's right for me

Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you've been here all along

So why can't you see, you belong with me

Standing by and waiting at your back

Though all the time, how could you not know, baby

You belong with me

You belong with me

You belong with me

Have you ever just said maybe, you belong with me, you belong with me?
