[00:07.604]You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset
[00:11.801]She's going off about something that you said
[00:15.367]Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do
[00:22.814]I'm in the room, it's a typical Tuesday night
[00:26.735]I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
[00:30.398]And she'll never know your story like I do
[00:35.118]
[00:37.422]But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts
[00:41.382]She's Cheer Captain and I'm on the bleachers
[00:45.058]Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find
[00:48.450]That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
[00:50.255]
[00:52.228]If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
[00:56.422]Been here all along, so why can't you see?
[01:02.449]You belong with me, you belong with me
[01:08.374]
[01:11.489]Walking the streets with you and your worn-out jeans
[01:15.585]I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
[01:19.380]Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself
[01:23.248]Hey, isn't this easy?
[01:26.373]And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
[01:30.506]I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down
[01:34.143]You say you're fine, I know you better than that
[01:37.928]Hey, whatcha doing with a girl like that?
[01:40.585]
[01:41.384]She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
[01:45.041]She's Cheer Captain and I'm on the bleachers
[01:48.762]Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find
[01:51.949]That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
[01:55.325]
[01:55.810]If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
[02:00.005]Been here all along, so why can't you see?
[02:06.274]You belong with me
[02:11.469]Standing by and waiting at your back door
[02:15.140]All this time, how could you not know, baby?
[02:21.196]You belong with me, you belong with me
[02:38.598]
[02:39.390]Oh, I remember you driving to my house
[02:42.777]In the middle of the night
[02:44.583]I'm the one who makes you laugh
[02:46.638]When you know you're 'bout to cry
[02:48.657]And I know your favorite songs
[02:50.470]And you tell me 'bout your dreams
[02:52.247]Think I know where you belong
[02:54.105]Think I know it's with me
[02:56.722]
[02:57.919]Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you
[03:02.104]Been here all along, so why can't you see?
[03:08.197]You belong with me
[03:13.059]Standing by and waiting at your back door
[03:16.986]All this time, how could you not know, baby?
[03:23.088]You belong with me, you belong with me
[03:29.828]
[03:30.362]You belong with me
[03:33.490]Have you ever thought just maybe
[03:38.139]You belong with me
[03:41.999]You belong with me
