You Belong With Me
T. Swift Lyrics

You're on the phone with your girlfriend
You're talking to her on the phone

She's upset
She's not in a good mood

She's going off about something that you said
She's angry about something you said

'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do
She doesn't understand your humor like I do

I'm in my room
I'm alone in my room

It's a typical Tuesday night
It's an ordinary Tuesday night

I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
I'm listening to the type of music she doesn't enjoy

And she'll never know your story like I do'
She'll never know you like I do

But she wears short skirts
She dresses in short skirts

I wear T-shirts
I dress in t-shirts

She's cheer captain
She's the cheerleading captain

And I'm on the bleachers
And I'm in the stands

Dreaming about the day when you wake up
Hoping for the day when you realize

And find that what you're looking for has been here the whole time
That what you've been searching for is me

If you can see I'm the one who understands you
If you realize that I'm the one who knows you best

Been here all along so why can't you see
I've been here the whole time, why haven't you noticed

You belong with me
You're meant to be with me

Walkin' the streets with you and your worn-out jeans
Strolling around town with you and your old jeans

I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
I believe this is how things should be between us

Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself
Sharing laughter together in a park and reflecting

Hey isn't this easy
Isn't this just effortless

And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
Your smile is contagious and everyone can see it

I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down
I haven't seen your smile in a while since she made you upset

You say you're fine
You claim to be okay

I know you better than that
But I understand you more than that

Hey what you doing with a girl like that
Why are you with someone like her?

She wears high heels
She dresses in high heels

I wear sneakers
I wear sports shoes

Standing by and waiting at your backdoor
Standing outside your door and waiting for you

All this time how could you not know
After all this time, how could you not realize

Oh, I remember you drivin' to my house in the middle of the night
I recall you driving to my house in the middle of the night

I'm the one who makes you laugh
I'm the one who can make you laugh

When you know you're about to cry
When you feel like you're about to cry

And I know your favorite songs
I know the songs you love most

And you tell me about your dreams
You share your aspirations with me

I think I know where you belong
I believe I know where you should be

I think I know it's with me
I think that it's with me

Have you ever thought just maybe
Have you ever considered the possibility

You belong with me
That you belong with me
