You're on the phone with your boyfriend, he's upset
He's going off about something that you said
He doesn't get your humor like I do
, it's a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music no body likes
And he'll never know your story like I doBut she wears shortskirts, I wear t-shirts
he's team captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you'll wake up and find
That what you're lookin' for was here the whole timeIf 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 meWalkin' the streets with you in your cut off jeans
I can't help thinkin this is how it ought to be
Laughing on the park bench thinkin 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 he brought you down
You say you find I know you better than that
Hey, Whatcha doing with a guy like that?He wears high tops, I wear sneakers
he's team 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 timeIf you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with meStandin by, just waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know baby?
You belong with me
You belong with meOh I remember driving to your 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.if you could see that I'm the one who understand you?
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with meStanding by just 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
You belong with me
