You're on the phone with your
girlfriend She's upset
She's going off about
something that you said
She doesnt
get your humour like I do
I'm in the room
its a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of
music she doesnt like
And 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 bout the day
when you'll 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
Walkin the streets with you
in your worn out jeans
I cant help thinking this is
how it ought to be
Laughing on the park
bench thinkin to myself
Hey isnt this easy
And you've got a smile
that could light up this whole town
I havent seen it in
awhile since she brought you down
You say you find
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 bout the day
when you'll 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
Standin by
waiting at your back door
All this time how
could you not know that
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 about to cry
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 understand you
Been here all along
so why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by or waiting at
your back door
All this time how
could you not know that
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
