You Belong With Me

You're on the phone with your boyfriend, he's upset
 He's going off about something that you said
 'Cause he doesn't get your humor like I do.
 I'm in the room, it's a typical Tuesday night.
 I'm listening to the kind of bands he doesn't like.
 And he'll never know your story like I do.
 He wears jerseys
 I wear t-shirts
 He's team captain
 And I'm on the bleachers
 Dreaming 'bout 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 he brought you down.
 You say you're fine—I know you better than that.
 Hey, what you doing with a dick like that?
 I wear Toms and
 He wears sneakers
 He's banging your friend
 Underneath the bleachers
 And I'm dreaming 'bout 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 back door.
 All this time how could you not know, baby
 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 'bout to cry.
 I know your favorite songs,
 And you tell me 'bout your dreams.
 I think I know where you belong,
 I think I know it's with me.
 Why can't you just fucking see?
 Why can't you just fucking see?
 You belong to me 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
 You belong with me
 Have you ever thought just maybe
 You belong with me
 You belong with me
