You belong with me

You are on the phone

with your girlfriend

she's upset

she's going off about

something that you said

she doesn't get your humor

like i do

i'm in my room  it's a typical tuesday night  i'm listening to the kind of music  she doesn't like  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 about the day  when you 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  you belong with me.  
walking the streets  with you and your worn out jeans  i can't help thinking this is how it ought to be  laughing on a park bench  thinking 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 awhile  since she brought you down  you say you're fine i know you better than that  hey whatchu doing  with a girl like that
she wears high heels  i wear sneakers  she's cheer captain  i'm on the bleachers  dreaming about the day  when you 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  standing by and  waiting at your backdoor  all this time  how could you not know baby 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  and i know your favorite songs  and you tell me about your dreams  think i know where you belong  think i know it's with me  
can't you see  that i'm the one  who understands  been here all along  so why can't you see?  you belong with me.  
 have you ever thought  just maybe 
you belong with me?
