SUNG BY TAYLOR SWIFT

You're on the phone

with your girlfriend ‒ she's upset

She's going off

about something that you said

'cause 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, what you doing

With a girl like that?

She wears high heels,

I wear sneakers.

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?

Standing by you

Waiting at your backdoor.

All this time

How could you not know, baby

You belong with me,

You belong with me?

[1]

Oh, I remember you were 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.

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 you?

Been here all along

So why can't you see

You belong with me?

Standing by you

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.
