You Belong With Me Lyrics - X Factor (us)

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 the room, it's a typical Tuesday night 

I'm listening to the kind of music 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 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, 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 a while since she brought you down 

You say you're fine, I know you 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 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, 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 

And I know your favorite songs and you tell me 'bout 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 and waiting at your back door 

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
