You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset
She's going off about something that bạn said
'Cause she 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 âm nhạc she doesn't like
And 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 ngày when bạn wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

If bạn could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along, so why can't bạn see?
bạn belong with me, bạn belong with me

Walking the streets with bạn 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 a while since she brought bạn down
bạn say you're fine, I know bạn better than that
Hey, what ya 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 ngày when bạn wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

If bạn could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along, so why can't bạn see?
bạn belong with me

Standing bởi and waiting at your back door
All this time how could bạn not know?
Baby, bạn belong with me, bạn belong with me

Oh, I remember bạn driving to my house in the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes bạn laugh when bạn know you're 'bout to cry
And I know your yêu thích songs and bạn tell me 'bout your dreams
Think I know where bạn belong, think I know it's with me

Can't bạn see that I'm the one who understands you?
Been here all along, so why can't bạn see?
bạn belong with me

Standing bởi and waiting at your back door
All this time, how could bạn not know?
Baby, bạn belong with me, bạn belong with me

bạn belong with me
Have bạn ever thought just maybe
bạn belong with me?
bạn belong with me
