Lyrics:

You're on the phone with your girlfriend
She's upset
She's going off about something 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 th 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
Dreamin' about the day
When you wake up and find 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 hep 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 can 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
Dreamin' about the day
When you wake up
And find 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 and waiting at your back door
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 only 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 I'm the only one who understands you
Been there 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
