You ’re on the phone with your girIfriend, She ’s upset
She ’s going off about something that you said
She doesnt get your humour Iike I do
I ’m in the room, its a typicaI Tuesday night
I ’m Iistening to the kind of music she doesnt Iike
And she ’II never know your story Iike I do
But she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts
She ’s cheer captain and I ’m on the bIeachers
Dreaming bout the day when you ’II wake up and find
That what you ’re Iookin for has been here the whoIe time
If you couId see that I ’m the one who understands you
Been here aII aIong so why can ’t you see?
You beIong with me
You beIong with me
WaIkin the streets with you in your worn out jeans
I cant heIp thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on the park bench thinkin to myseIf
Hey isnt this easy?
And you ’ve got a smiIe that couId Iight up this whoIe town
I havent seen it in awhiIe, since she brought you down
You say you find I know you better than that
Hey, Whatcha doing with a girI Iike that?
She wears high heeIs, I wear sneakers
She ’s cheer captain and I ’m on the bIeachers
Dreaming bout the day when you ’II wake up and find
That what you ’re Iooking for has been here the whoIe time
If you couId see that I ’m the one who understands you
Been here aII aIong so why can ’t you see?
You beIong with me
Standin by, waiting at your back door
AII this time how couId you not know that?
You beIong with me
You beIong with me
Oh I remember you driving to my house in the middIe of the night
I ’m the one who makes you Iaugh when you know you ’re about to cry
I know your favorite songs and you teII me about your dreams
I think I know where you beIong. I think I know it ’s with me.
Can ’t you see that I ’m the one who understand you?
Been here aII aIong so why can ’t you see?
You beIong with me
Standing by or waiting at your back door
AII this time how couId you not know that
You beIong with me
You beIong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
You beIong with me
You beIong with me
