you belong with me..

You're on the phone with your girlfriend

She's upset.

She's going off about something that you said'

Cuz she doesn't get your humor like I do...

I'm in the roomIt's a typical Tuesday night

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

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

But she wears short skirts

I wear T-shirtsShe'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

Walk in 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 a while since she brought you down

You say your fine

I know you better than that

Hey whatcha 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 and waiting at your back door

All this time how could you not know

Baby...

You belong with me

You belong with me

Oh'

I remember you drivin' 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

And I know your favorite songs

And you tell me about your dreams

I think I know where you belong

I 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 and waiting at your back door

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?
