Hello all~ This little song cross-over is the inspiration of one too many "Unrequited Love" fanfictions between our dear hobbit and the best dwarf known to middle earth. Taylor Swift sang it first, and the characters belong to Dear Mr Tolkin and Mr Jackson. I just combined the two.
Ballad of Bilbo and Bofur
(You belong with me)
You're in the hall with your boyfriend
He's upset
Going' off about something that you said
He doesn't get your humor
Like I do.
We're in a cave; it's a typical stormy night,
I'm playing all the kinds of music he doesn't like
And he'll never
Know your story like I do.
But he wears nice shoes
I wear old boots
He's King Under the Mountain
And I dig in mine chutes.
Dreaming of the day
When you'll wake up and find
That what you're looking for
Has been here the whole time
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?
You belong with me.
Walking the woods with you and your dirty sleeves
I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on an old log,
Thinking to myself-
"Hey, isn't this easy?"
And you've got a smile that could pierce a cruel dragon's heart
I haven't seen it in a while since he ripped yours apart
You say you're fine,
I know you better then that.
Hey, whatcha doing with a Dawrf like that?
But he wears soft furs,
I wear breeches.
He's King Under the Mountain
And I sew up dolls with stitches
Dreaming of the day when you'll wake up and find
That what you're looking for
Has been here the whole time.
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 the mountain door
All this time
How could you not know baby?
You belong with me!
Oh I remember arriving at your house
In the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh
When you know you're bout to cry
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 the mountain 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.
