[00:07.67]You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset
[00:11.48]She's going off about something that you said
[00:15.20]'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do
[00:22.34]I'm in the room, it's a typical Tuesday night
[00:26.30]I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
[00:30.07]And she'll never know your story like I do
[00:36.87]But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts
[00:40.77]She's Cheer Captain, and I'm on the bleachers
[00:44.47]Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
[00:47.53]That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
[00:51.20]If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
[00:55.53]Been here all along, so why can't you see?
[01:01.50]You belong with me, you belong with me
[01:10.33]Walk in the streets with you in your worn-out jeans
[01:14.33]I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
[01:18.25]Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself
[01:22.14]"Hey, isn't this easy?"
[01:24.91]And you've got a smile that can light up this whole town
[01:29.16]I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down
[01:32.78]You say you're fine, I know you better than that
[01:36.46]Hey, what you doing with a girl like that?
[01:39.79]She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
[01:43.47]She's Cheer Captain, and I'm on the bleachers
[01:47.25]Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
[01:50.38]That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
[01:54.04]If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
[01:58.32]Been here all along, so why can't you see?
[02:04.32]You belong with me
[02:09.18]Standing by and waiting at your backdoor
[02:13.18]All this time how could you not know, baby?
[02:19.15]You belong with me, you belong with me
[02:36.96]Oh, I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night
[02:42.25]I'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're 'bout to cry
[02:46.14]I know your favorite songs and you tell me 'bout your dreams
[02:49.50]Think I know where you belong, think I know it's with me
[02:55.06]Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you?
[02:59.31]Been here all along, so why can't you see?
[03:05.37]You belong with me
[03:10.33]Standing by and waiting at your backdoor
[03:14.08]All this time how could you not know, baby?
[03:20.01]You belong with me, you belong with me
[03:27.34]You belong with me
[03:30.12]Have you ever thought, just maybe
[03:33.91]You belong with me?
[03:37.26]You belong with me
