You belong with me

You're outside with your boyfriend again

He's all worked up about something that you said

He doesn't get you humor like I do

But you can't see that, can you?

I'm on the couch; it's a typical Saturday night

I'm flipping through the kind of books he doesn't like

No, he'll never know your story like I do

But you're still so blind, aren't you?

Designer labels and leather jackets are his style

Torn jeans and vintage shirts are my own design

Still, you can't see what's right in front of you

And there's absolutely nothing else I can do

I watch you leave for your date with him

I see you fly out the door and into his arms

You walk away without once looking back

The give me a play by play when you got back

You're grinning like there's no tomorrow

Your happiness takes away all my sorrow

Still maybe you'll never see

Truth is you're better off with me

He's all muscle, got the face but no brains

He's got the money but all he wants is the fame

You say you're fine, I know you better than that

What are you doing with a guy like that?

And I'm the only one who understands you

I've been here all along so why can't you see?

I'm dreaming bout day when you wake up and find

That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

Standing by, just waiting at your back door

All this time how could you not know?

Have you ever thought just maybe…?

You belong with me

I remember you were running to my room in the middle of the night

I'm the one who makes you laugh even though you're bout to cry

I know your favorite songs and you tell me bout your dreams

I think I know where you belong; I think it's with me

Can't you see…?

I'm the on who understands you

I've been here all along, now can you see?

You belong with me
