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      Have you ever thought just maybe   You belong with me   You belong with me
