You Belong with Me - Taylor Swift (lyrics) You\u0027re on the phone with your girlfriend, she\u0027s upset She\u0027s going off about something that you said \u0027Cause she doesn\u0027t get your humor like I do I\u0027m in the room, it\u0027s a typical Tuesday night I\u0027m listening to the kind of music she doesn\u0027t like And she\u0027ll never know your story like I do But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts She\u0027s Cheer Captain, and I\u0027m on the bleachers Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find That what you\u0027re looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I\u0027m the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can\u0027t you see? You belong with me, you belong with me Walk in the streets with you in your worn-out jeans I can\u0027t help thinking this is how it ought to be Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself \u0022Hey, isn\u0027t this easy?\u0022 And you\u0027ve got a smile that can light up this whole town I haven\u0027t seen it in a while since she brought you down You say you\u0027re fine, I know you better than that Hey, what you doing with a girl like that? She wears high heels, I wear sneakers She\u0027s Cheer Captain, and I\u0027m on the bleachers Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find That what you\u0027re looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I\u0027m the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can\u0027t 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\u0027m the one who makes you laugh when you know you\u0027re \u0027bout to cry I know your favorite songs and you tell me \u0027bout your dreams Think I know where you belong, think I know it\u0027s with me Can\u0027t you see that I\u0027m the one who understands you? Been here all along, so why can\u0027t 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 You belong with me Have you ever thought, just maybe You belong with me? You belong with me
