You cut me down a tree
And brought it back to me
And that's what made me see
Where I was going wrong
You put me on a shelf
And kept me for yourself
I can only blame myself
You can only blame meAnd I could write a song
A hundred miles long
Well, that's where I belong
And you belong with meAnd I could write it down
Or spread it all around
Get lost and then get found
Or swallowed in the seaYou put me on a line
And hung me out to dry
And darling that's when I
Decided to go to seaYou cut me down to size
And opened up my eyes
Made me realize
What I could not seeAnd I could write a book
The one they'll say that shook
The world, and then it took
It took it back from meAnd I could write it down
Or spread it all around
Get lost and then get found
And you'll come back to me
Not swallowed in the seaOoh, oohAnd I could write a song
A hundred miles long
Well, that's where I belong
And you belong with meThe streets you're walking on
A thousand houses long
Well, that's where I belong
And you belong with meOh what good is it to live
With nothing left to give
Forget but not forgive
Not loving all you seeOh the streets you're walking on
A thousand houses long
Well that's where I belong
And you belong with me
Not swallowed in the seaYou belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea
Yeah, you belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea
