| You’re on the phone with your boyfriend
|
| He’s upset
|
| He’s going off about something that you said
|
| 'cause he doesn’t get your humor like I do
|
| I’m in the room
|
| It’s a typical Tuesday night
|
| I’m listenin' to the kind of music he doesn’t like
|
| He’ll never know your story like I do
|
| 'cause he pops collars
|
| I rock Converse
|
| He plays football
|
| And I wouldn’t bother
|
| Dreaming 'bout 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 in your skinny jeans
|
| I can’t help thinkin' this is how it ought to be
|
| Laughin' on a park bench, thinkin' to myself
|
| Isn’t this easy?
|
| And you’ve got a smile that can light up this whole town
|
| I haven’t seen it in a while since he brought you down
|
| You say you’re fine, I know you’re better than that
|
| Hey, wha’cha doin' with a boy like that?
|
| 'cause he’s so popular
|
| I’m just awkward
|
| He plays football
|
| And I wouldn’t bother
|
| Dreamin' 'bout the day when you wake up and find
|
| That what you’re lookin' 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
|
| Standing by, and waiting out your back door
|
| All this time, how could you not know, baby?
|
| You belong with me
|
| You belong with me
|
| (you're…)
|
| Ooh, I remember you
|
| Driving to my house
|
| In the middle of the night
|
| I’m the one that makes you laugh
|
| When you know you’re 'bout to cry
|
| And I know your favorite songs
|
| And you tell me 'bout 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, and waiting out 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
|
| You belong with me |
