You Belong With Me

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 my room, it's a typical Tuesday night.

I'm listening to the kind of bands he doesn't like.

And he'll never know your story like I do.

He wears jerseys

I wear t-shirts

He's team 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 can 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 he brought you down.

You say you're fine - I know you better than that.

Hey, what you doing with a dick like that?

I wear Toms and

He wears sneakers

He's banging your friend

Underneath the bleachers

I'm dreaming about the day when you wake up and find

That what you're looking for has been here the whole time.

If you can 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

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.

Why can't you just fucking see?

Why can't you just fucking see?

You belong to me

You belong to me

You belong to me

If you can 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
