You Belong With Me

Taylor Swift

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


‘Cause she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts
She’s Cheer Captain and I’m on the bleachers
Dreaming ’bout 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, you belong with me

Walk in 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 can 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, whatcha doing with a girl like that?
